Simplified Wreck Survey

The remains of a small trawler are located at coordinates 53 44.234 N, 0 15.762 E. This approximately 100ft long vessel of about 250 GRT features small winches forward of the wheelhouse, along with a boiler, stern tube, rudder, and propeller. Historical records indicate the ship may have been built in the Newcastle area, though a 2013 multibeam survey failed to locate the wreck, leading to it being classified as dead.
