The wreck is spread out over 500 metres and it is actually possible to follow the last hours of the battle step by step following the tracks it has left on the seabed. Cannonballs, parts of the hull and masts, as well as personal artefacts, bear testimony to the brutality of the sea battle. The main wreck itself, including both hull sides, are relatively intact in the middle of the wreck area, where guns of various dimensions and calibres are sprinkled across the seabed in unprecedented quantity.
