My father thinks it is the stern of the bow section that stood on Alnmouth rocks for years but can't remember the name. Judging by the size , smaller than the Hanseat, it was possibly a fishing boat?

Will it be visible on a normal tide Hollydog? or do you need a spring tide to see it? I'm thinking about a walk and a photo for the record. It's quite a nice stroll over there as well.
