General Comments

H12298/2011;NOS -- NOAA Ship THOMAS JEFFERSON identified a feature in the multibeam data from that is generally consistent with his description. The feature has wreck-like characteristics and is oblong and positioned in a north-south orientation. The surrounding depth is approximately 140 feet, and the length of the feature is approximately 55 feet (though it is possible the tapered ends of the vessel were not fully reflected in the data set). In 2014, Coast Survey received a public inquiry from an individual who describes the wreck (upon which he has dove) as “The shipwreck is in 140' of water, is a scuttled ~70' long wooden Desco style fishing boat, she lies on her starboard side, with her bow pointed north. With the exception of her prop and prop shaft it appears all the valuable hardware was stripped prior to her sinking. She is located at 41-16.099 x 71-54.021.”
