| It was possible to swim alongside the side of the wreck and look down towards the seabed. |
| Unlike the stern, the seabed at the bow is at 34m, with virtually no scour. |
| The wreck lay intact on its port side, its masts and crane jibs spreading themselves across the sand and gravel seabed. |
| Below us the seabed was strewn with small boulders and overgrown with beds of brown kelp. |
