    Hello there! The wreck Steven referred above is called Osmundvraket (Osmund iron wreck) and it is different than the Okänt Skepp (Unknown ship). The Osmundvraket in itself is rather interesting of course, it was probably made or atleast repaired in Finland at some point, which then sparked my interest in it (I'm Finnish), more info on it can be found on the Vrak - museum of wreks -site: https://www.vrak.se/en/wrecks-and-remains/osmundvraket/ (Vrak being of course the Swedish word for wrek). The museum site also has lots of information on other Swedish wreks. From the Okänt Skepp I've not managed to find anything since the initial press release in 2019, the original press release was fron the University of Southampton (found here: https://www.southampton.ac.uk/news/2019/07/unknown-ship.page ) and all news stories seem to be referring that. Dr Rodrigo Pacheco-Ruiz also has a youtube page with some lovely footage of the ship. They were supposed to go back the next year to gather more information, but the next year was of course the infernal 2020 so I think it just didn't happen

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
