Documenting Hull #1

MAHS volunteers documented Hull #4, the northenmost of the vessels vsible along the shoreline at low tide.

The vessel appears to have been a schooner. Although partly buried in the mud, some of the frames out to what appeared to be the turn of bilge and a large, deteriorated timber that was the keelson were visible, seen here and in the image below.
