Santiago de Compostela (EFE).- The underwater robot that yesterday Saturday descended from the ship ‘Ártabro’, in charge of the mission to search, locate and inspect the wreck of the ‘Villa de Pitanxo’, has confirmed that the located metal structure is effectively from the Galician fishing boat that sank in 2022 in Newfoundland.
After this confirmation, the work is now focused on recording the wreck “up close” to find out more clearly what were the causes that led to the shipwreck on February 15, 2022, in which 21 of the 24 sailors on board lost their lives. .
