This site was part of an underwater archaeological survey by the Maritime Archaeology Survey Team (MAST) in 2001. MAST sidescan surveyed the site, was instrumental in the return of the propeller to the wreck, assisted in the technical report published by Patrick Labadie and Charles Herdendorf, and also created an underwater slate.
