Simplified Wreck Survey

Historical survey records for the underwater wreck located at coordinates 51 46.442 N, 0 53.728 E off the coast of the United Kingdom detail its identification history starting from March 1978 when a hulk was first recorded on aerial photoplot records. Subsequent hydrographic surveys in December 1978 by HMS Bulldog located the hulk of a small boat using trisponder positioning systems. Further positional refinements were charted in May 1981 before the wreck was officially removed from navigational charts in March 1994 due to its location on an indeterminate coastline.
