Simplified Wreck Survey

The MYNDROOM is an underwater wreck located at coordinates 53 2.822 N, 0 39.695 E. Originally standing with mast heads exposed, subsequent surveys and sweeping reports indicate the wreck has broken up and been reduced to seabed level by sand waves. Although once marked by a buoy and reported as a navigation hazard following vessel strikes and fouled trawls, current status reflects a submerged obstruction at these coordinates.
