Site Description The Nightingale is somewhat intact. The sides are collapsed–the ports side collapsed outward and the starboard side collapsed inward. The stern is upright but disconnected from the sides. All of the machinery is gone including the windlass, any winches, and anchors. The chain plates are extant on site and the encrusted and broken wheel appears to also be extant on site. The hanging deck knees are angled in the midship.
