Wreck Information: She lies upside down on a sloping seabed, her bow lies pointing in towards the shore in about 20m. From the bow you can see the impact damage that occurred when it hit the rock! then descend down the side of the hull. The seabed is covered by the remaining unsalvaged cargo which can stir up very easily if disturbed. At the stern her propeller and an aft anchor can be seen, but the superstructure is all buried underneath the wreck. Easier access to underneath the wreck can be seen from the starboard side of the wreck. There is little life on board given the short time since she sank. She is usually buoyed. But is easily picked up on a sounder
