Abstract
A shipwreck, designated as Ma‘agan Mikhael B, was discovered
in 2005 by divers about 70 m from the shoreline and at
a depth of 1 m, embedded in sandy seafloor sediments.
Soon after, the shipwreck was lost in the sand. In May 2015,
it was located in a survey with a chirp sub-bottom profiler,
and a water-jetting survey in August 2015 confirmed its
position. This paper discusses the detection of the Ma‘agan
Mikhael B shipwreck using a chirp sub-bottom profiler.
