Mulheim Wrecks, United Kingdom
From series “The Surviving Remains of Shipwrecks You Can Observe Yourself”
Rocky outcrop Land's End is the most South-West point of Great Britain. There you can find the ship "Mulheim" that was wrecked in 2003. Its last cruising was connected with a huge consignment of plastic from Ireland to Germany. Unfortunately, this cargo wasn’t departed to Germany because the ship was ashore on the rocky island. As it has happened not so far, the cargo doesn’t have time to fall into decay. Even more, the ship girder has saved its original colour.
At the time of the catastrophe, the crew was successfully saved. Toxins didn’t stay too long into the local waters. Actually, the ship is located in a remote district, that’s why tourists quite rarely visit it. Travellers who want to see the wrecked ship "Mulheim" have to take a boat trip. It is quite hard to get to the ship by land. To the beginning - Dimitros-P Wrecks
