Simplified Wreck Survey

Underwater obstruction survey report for location 53 17.998 N, 6 7.49 W located off the coast of Dun Laoghaire Ireland. This site was originally investigated as a possible wreck using DGPS coordinates. Initial survey data recorded a general depth of 5 meters with structural dimensions of 2 meters in length and 1.2 meters in height. The feature was subsequently identified as a probable rocky patch with a revised least depth of 2.6 meters. Following a 2011 survey by the RV Keary the feature could not be located at these coordinates. The site was officially confirmed as dead and removed from hydrographic records in 2014. Mariners are advised that no obstruction exists at these coordinates.
