Scope and Content This report presents the outcomes of side scan sonar surveys and archaeological diving evaluations of two boom defence vessels located off the north coast of Flotta within Scapa Flow, Orkney (Canmore ID 102201). The site was initially dived by Rob Baxandall off the MV Valkyrie in September 2014. He reported that the wreck was a long narrow vessel that was associated with World War II boom defence debris (boom netting and buoys) – which overlay and surrounded the site.
