We weren't going to disturb the seabed any more at that point but we brought it up. |
The source of the oil is unknown and is thought to have possibly sprung from an old wreck lying on the seabed which has rusted away. |
Below us the seabed was strewn with small boulders and overgrown with beds of brown kelp. |
At the top is the steering quadrant, while at the bottom the rudder lies flat against the seabed. |
At the midships section the keel is suspended above the seabed and there is plenty of space to swim through. |
The wreckage of the vessel was found last week on the seabed over 130 feet below the waves. |
