April 10th 2003; a new wreck in the making at Port Sudan the abandoned freighter HASSANIEN was towed out of the harbour at Port Sudan and anchored near to Wingate Reef and the Umbria on April 6th. She later settled in 24 mtrs. Registered in Belise, she is about 70 mtrs long and described as a small coastal freighter. It is likely that the sea cocks were opened in order to dispose of the obstruction and at the same time create a new wreck. Our team further reports that she is upright , intact and still boasts her bridge instrumentation. Watch out for further details as they come in PC 10/5/03

We shall be diving her during September/October 2007
