Wrecks on the Coquet near Amble |

|
||||||||
There are ten wrecks visible on the 'north side' mudflats of the Coquet estuary near Amble. The six larger wrecks are possibly lighters similar to the vessel moored at the far end of the North Jetty in this photograph. There are four other small boats also visible. We measured vessel 'B', which is 21.2 metres (70 feet) in length with a beam of about 6.5 to 7 metres (21 feet), the other five look quite similar. | ||||||||
