Lower portion of the hull

The lower hull was only briefly observed.  As a consequence of its very good preservation - the timbers showed crisp edges, tool marks, and a light coloration - it allowed a good look at features that had been photographed in the 1970 survey and of the upper part of the hull, and impossible to see now, after all the degradation endured by that portion of the hull in the last 32 years.
