Diver inspection (November 2017) and multibeam sonar survey in January 2017 recorded a deep seabed depression and debris associated with the scuttling and primary salvage of Sms Kaiserin at this location by Metal Industries Ltd in 1936. There are two distinct patches of wreckage present. The western section was characterized by two sections of what was probably the foremast, of the slim original type, and corroded searchlight remains. The eastern section contains similar type material, including a derrick arm.
