Simplified Wreck Survey

The underwater wreck of the vessel Condita is located at coordinates 33 55.1 S, 58 25 W in the Rio de la Plata estuary. Historical survey records from the UK Hydrographic Office document the status of the wreck over time. Initially reported as a dangerous wreck in 1964 and marked by green buoys, subsequent surveys through 1973 noted its position near navigation channels and Argentine buoys. By 1986, official notices confirmed that the wreck and its marking buoys no longer exist, leading to the wreck being expunged from hydrographic charts.
