Simplified Wreck Survey

Underwater Wreck Survey Details for position 51 52.684 N, 1 37.122 E located off the southeast coast of England in the North Sea. This underwater obstruction features a least multibeam depth of 19.9 meters within a general surrounding depth of 22 meters. The submerged site measures 17 meters in length, 5.6 meters in width, with a height of 2.6 meters, oriented on a 053/233 degree heading. Historical hydrographic surveys note a moderate magnetic anomaly and a 50-meter scour extending towards 211 degrees. Previous examinations suggest the wreckage may be fragmented or associated with neighbouring debris rather than a single intact vessel.
