Simplified Wreck Survey

The shipwreck ELEUTRIA is located in the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Libya near the port of Ez Zuetina at coordinates 30 57.614 N, 20 6.389 E. Historically documented in various nautical charts including Italian 465 and BA 3402, the site marks a submerged underwater obstruction. Initial reports from 1927 identified a wreck in the vicinity, which was subsequently updated across multiple hydrographic surveys throughout the 20th century. The wreck, recorded as the ELEUTRIA, remains a known navigational hazard for mariners operating in these coastal waters. Official survey data confirms its position using the WGS84 datum, and while historical records note the loss of earlier wreck buoys, the obstruction is clearly indexed for maritime safety and underwater survey purposes near the Libyan coastline.
