Simplified Wreck Survey

Underwater wreck and obstruction survey data located off the west coast of Scotland near the Inner Hebrides at coordinates 56 25.669 N, 6 12.245 W. This non-natural underwater object measures 60 meters in length, 12 meters in width, and 4.5 meters in height, lying on an orientation of 065/245 degrees with no seabed scour. The site features a least multibeam depth of 57.87 meters within a general surrounding depth of 59 meters. Survey records indicate the obstruction strongly resembles an intact wreck leaning to one side, though it could potentially be a seabed rock feature, and is officially charted as a 57-meter wreck following position updates from bathymetric reprocessing.
