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.
