Ground-truthing by remote video and dive inspection of two contacts from the phase 1 salvage sites project to the south east side of the site, provided more detail of the aft mast area where small fragments of coal and wood were scattered across the seabed. Two brass pipes were found and a section of ladder was also seen partially buried in the seabed.
