Simplified Wreck Survey

Underwater obstruction survey record for the North Sea coastal area near Whitby, England, located at coordinates 54 37.059 N, 0 47.667 W. Historical survey data indicates that while three fouls were originally reported in the vicinity, subsequent multi-beam sonar investigations in 1989 and 2016 found no wreckage or structural remains, identifying the site as an area of natural rock ledges rather than a man-made wreck or underwater obstruction. The site is currently classified as no further action required.
