Simplified Wreck Survey

Historic shipwreck details for the sunken vessel LISELOTTE located at coordinates 53 54.3 N, 8 2 E in the North Sea off the German coast. The site of this underwater wreck and obstruction has a detailed survey history starting with its initial marking by a buoy with a West topmark, subsequent position updates, and reports of the wreck silting up before the buoy was eventually withdrawn. German hydrographic notices initially classified the obstruction before it was re-instated as a dangerous wreck on nautical charts, with earlier records noting its historical status dating back to 1917 before final chart deletion actions were processed.
