Simplified Wreck Survey
The shipwreck Aziminia M Embericos is located at coordinates 51 23.2 N, 4 10.203 E in the North Sea off the coast of the Netherlands and Belgium. Historical hydrographic survey records from the UK Hydrographic Office document the evolution of this underwater obstruction from an initial dangerous wreck with a least depth of 0.9 meters discovered in May 1952, through clearance operations in the 1960s that reclassified it as a non-dangerous foul obstruction, to subsequent depth updates showing shoals and wrecks at 3.6 meters, 8.7 meters, and 11.0 meters, ultimately culminating in the wreck being expunged and deleted from official navigation charts in 2006.
