Blyth Wreck: Heritage Crime

sketchfab

This model exposes evidence of illicit salvage attempts carried out on the wreck CITiZAN documented at Blyth beach back in 2018. Although the exact timeframe when the wood was compromised remains unknown, it's suspected to have occurred within a short span of years. The primary objective of the salvagers is clearly evident - they were after copper - as seen by the fact that the surrounding timber containing in-place copper bolts has been meticulously cut away, leaving the bolts brutally severed.
