Recorded wreck SWR348

Shipwreck

What is recorded here

SWR348 is not a ship at all but a wooden platform with upstanding X-shaped members and a nav light base, sunk 11m off County Derry. The wreck label is a mistake; the shape is a marker, a jetty or a small harbour fixture that fell or was dropped into the sea. Whatever it marked, the sea took the whole arrangement and left the bones standing on the seabed.
The official Northern Ireland wreck record identifies Recorded wreck SWR348 as Wooden platform rather than vessel?. It was lost in Unknown. Recorded depth: 11m. Recorded condition: Wreckage on seabed, upstanding X-shaped members. Nav light base?.
