Simplified Wreck Survey

Underwater shipwreck survey record located at coordinates 11 53.6 N, 50 32.5 E near the coast of Somalia in the Gulf of Aden. This maritime obstruction is identified as a former Coast Guard vessel, observed in an upright and intact structural condition as of August 2010. Photographic evidence confirmed the hull remains largely sound with a small boat alongside, suggesting the vessel was potentially still afloat at the time of the survey. This wreck site is maintained for hydrographic filing purposes to ensure navigational safety in the region.
