Underwater Wreck Survey Details Coordinates 49 53.836 N 6 18.013 W located off the coast of the United Kingdom. Historical survey records indicate a small underwater wreck previously examined at a depth of 56.5 meters with dimensions including a height of 2.8 meters a length of 10 meters and a beam of 5 meters lying intact on a smooth slope oriented at 030/210 degrees. Later multibeam bathymetric surveys conducted in September 2017 failed to locate the structure identifying the site as flat seabed leading to its removal from active navigation charts.
