SL/E/KALM/M/22

This shipwreck is positioned at a maximum depth of 12m, about 3km off the coast of Kalmune-1, an area which is about 45km southeast of Batticaloa. The wreck is 102.8m (337ft 2in) in length.

Although this iron-hulled ship is unidentified at the moment, the investigations have identified this as a Steam ship that belonged to the British period, due to the existence of three boilers, two propellers and one shaft at the wreck site. Having an extra propeller is the speciality of this wreck, which is presently positioned about 15m from the aft of the ship towards the center of the ship. Furthermore, an anchor can be observed in the bow (front) section of the ship, yet the iron fragments deposited on it has made it difficult to clearly identify.
