Area A
In area A we developed several missions towards identifying several magentic anomalies.
In area where he initially knew of the existence of a wreck and had a chance to have a second wreck. We did indeed located a shipwreck in the area (LagosC), but it is not the medieval or modern wreck reported to exist in the area. LagosC was baptized propeller's paradise, due to its large iron propeller. Outside, but during our study we locate LagosD, probably a military wreck of the 19th century. Moreover several isolated artefacts where located during our dive surveys. The best preserved one was the neck of an roman Amphora of Late-Imperial times.
Area B
No wreck was located inside area b, however in the vicinity was located LagosE an presently unknown wreck.
