For many years this site was believed to be by local dive groups as that of the Ramage and Ferguson built Nubia. This has now been disproved due to the boiler detail on site compared to that of the Nubia not matching, in turn the site at the head of this page is now to be considered an unknown.

This is the wreck of a steamer of 70-80mtrs in length. The site shows itself to have been heavily dispersed. There is no sign of the engine. The boilers are x2 single ended Scotch type, each with x2 corrugated furnaces per boiler. Due to the effects of dispersal the boilers are some 25 feet apart with much of the outer shell buckled. The whole site is a mass of broken plates, beams and ribs. Amongst the wreckage can be seen the anchors (admiralty type), winches and bollards.
