Two (2) concentrated areas of metal were picked up near the bow (A) and near the middle of the vessel (B).

No timetable has been set yet to excavate and identify these two areas of interest.

The port-stern area is shown broken away from the wreck. This section is buried below the surface of the beach and cannot be seen.
