NtoM 15 – 2025 River Medway – Allington (M20 bridge) Sunken Vessel
Not aware of anyone hurt, presume just a case of either mechanical failure or somebody getting the tides seriously wrong.
Looks to be nice boat as well.
At LW this area completely dries out and reveals a hard bottom and channel to be very narrow, simply due to the river bank piling on either bank having collapsed outwards and protuding up from the river bed.
In the photo the tops of the piles showing how narrow the channel are now under the surface.
When transiting under the M20 bridge just keep to the middle.
