Simplified Wreck Survey

The shipwreck Vision, identified by the coordinates 53 29.01 N, 6 1.06 W, is located off the coast of Dublin, Ireland, in the Irish Sea. Originally reported as aground in 1994, the vessel was historically classified as a standing obstruction or wreck. Subsequent maritime surveys conducted in 2014 confirmed that the wreck is no longer visible on satellite imagery such as Google Earth or Flash Earth. Due to the lack of surface evidence and the passage of time, the Vision is now officially classified as a dead wreck and is assumed to be completely broken up or disintegrated. There are no longer any significant structural remains or navigational hazards associated with this site.
