Norway's oldest preserved wreck?

3D Model

Gaff rigged sail boat. Voluntary group, Funn i Hafrsfjord have found many targets underwater in their search for remnants from a viking batlle. This is the first of the targets we dived on. As yet unknown dates but has probably been underwater for over 100 years. Low oxygen levels in this fjord create ideal conditions for preservation. More information on the project at http://hafrsfjord.org/ Wreck depth 43m. Preliminary dating from Stavanger maritime museum puts it around late 1700’s to early 1800’s.
