विवरण

German cutter yacht "Ekke Nekkepen" in the bay of Lübeck, Germany.
Built in 1950's as a fishery vessel.
Sunk in the late 1980's for an unknown reason.
After being repurposed as a leisure craft around 1980, she was retrofitted with a sail rigg, but it's not clear if the proper hydrostatic calculations were ever made. There is a chance, that she lost too much of stability and capsized in bad weather.
Wreck length - 16 m (50 ft)
Max depth - 21 m (70 ft)
