General Comments

R/H (Rude/Heck) 40-1-75 (1975)-- found in CL-623 (75); Clamming vessel Capt. Rick was found and investigated by divers. The wreck was located at 36°47.9'N 75°29.6'W. The wreck had sunk in January 1975. It was found in 75feet of water and cleared to 54.5 feet (reduction based on predicted tides table). An interesting coincidence was noted: Both the HANK (another wreck in the vicinity) and the RICK were skippered by the same man; he went down with the RICK. (Entered on 10/22/10 by RSM.) H12203/2010; NOS -- NOAA Ship THOMAS JEFFERSON found wreck with 200% Klein 5000 side scan sonar. A least depth was acquired with Reson 7125 multibeam.
