We are currently working on an underwater video about Bonaire. One of the dive sites we cover is the Hilma Hooker. We are now looking for any stills or video from before she sank to add to our underwater footage. Any help is appreciated!

There used to be some pictures hanging on the wall at Rendezvous Restaurant. These were of the sinking in progress, taken from shore with an onlooker in the foreground. Not sure whether they're still there. Maybe someone will check it out for you.

I know that Rendez-Vous has been taken over by new people. Hopefully the pics are still there! Anyone on the island now who is willing to walk in and check? Thanks!

Keep in mind the photographer that took the photos in the restaurant may hold the copyright on the images. Might be necessary to obtain permission to use in the video (or post on BT).

André Nahr (owner of Bonaire Dive & Adventure) and/or Marcel Nahr (his brother and former owner of Rendevous) had pictures and a video taken before and during the sinking. André can be contacted through the BD&A website at http://www.bonairediveandadventure.com/ .
