Arade 2 Shipwreck: CPAS' Arade 2 Shipwreck |
|
Although we know that the captain of the dredge Mark dived on this shipwreck - from which the gun seen aboard the dredge by locals is said to have come[1] - it had been completely covered by a SW storm when the team from CPAS visited the site, and there is no information on this ship. |

Mr. Alberto Machado found an interesting clue for the localization of this shipwreck on a map with the water depths taken in 1977, long after the dredging works of 1970. Close to the place where CPAS' report placed the Arade 2 shipwreck, this map shows a rather pronounced mound projecting from the natural embankment. Future surveys may unveil the position of this ship. |
