Chester Poling Wreck (boat dive)
Gloucester, off shore
The Chester Poling is a fun dive spot for advanced divers. Here you will drop down about 100ft to the wreck so charters will require you to show your advanced certification. There's often lots of life teaming here. For advanced divers, it's often at least once a year visited due to the close location of the site.
