Simplified Wreck Survey

Underwater obstruction at coordinates 54 39.606 N, 1 2.763 W located off the coast of North East England in the North Sea. This site was previously identified as an anchor fouled on a 100mm chain cable. Historical survey data from October 2002 noted the obstruction near the position 54 39.606 N, 1 2.763 W. However, a follow-up survey conducted between 2017 and 2018 by Clinton Marine Survey utilizing multibeam echosounder data failed to locate the object. Consequently, the status of this wreck or obstruction has been amended to dead, indicating it is no longer detected at this North Sea location.
