The Goodwin Sands has long been a major navigation hazard. This study, completed in September 2016, furthered previous efforts to map the many shipwrecks in the area by utilizing recent bathymetric surveys to update the wreck database created during the English Heritage AMAP2 project. The bathymetric data was analyzed to independently confirm the presence of known wrecks and locate
previously undocumented ones. Two wrecks listed in the AMAP2 database, the SS Ira and the Luray Victory, were flagged as potentially misidentified, and alternate identifications are suggested.
