M/V JANET was a tugboat deployed as an artificial reef by Okaloosa County in October 1997. She is 85 feet (26 meters) in length and currently sits upright on a sandy seabed at a depth of 97 feet (29.5 meters). The multiple doorways and large hole in her main deck allow limited penetration into her interior. Her wheelhouse is also intact, giving divers plenty to explore during their bottom time. Barracuda are common on this site, along with soapfish and gag grouper. Janet was added to the Florida Panhandle Shipwreck Trail in 2020, joining an elite list of other popular sites in the region.
