Dave John Posts: 22335 Joined: 27th Feb 2011 Location: England | Posted at 22:04 on 15th November 2013 I'm thinking along the lines of something like Marianas Trench in the Pacific.... the only one I readilt know but got a feeling it may be a bit deeper than 550 |
Vince Hawthorn Posts: 12758 Joined: 19th Apr 2010 Location: UK | Posted at 22:14 on 15th November 2013 I think it would be too |
Dave John Posts: 22335 Joined: 27th Feb 2011 Location: England | Posted at 22:23 on 15th November 2013 550 fathoms = 990 mtrs (1200+ feet) so I reckon that puts any of the British lakes out ofthe equation as Wastwater is the deepest at around 75 mtr, so we must be looking off shore |
