A hulk of 20th Century date is visible as a structure on aerial photographs of 1945 onwards, within Waterhead Creek. The vessel is first visible as a recently abandoned and intact structure on aerial photographs of 1945 along the northern shoreline of Waterhead Creek. Aerial photographs of 1951 show the hulk of the former vessel to be largely complete, although by 1961 is in a slightly more deteriorated state. The hulk, which remains in a stationary position and measures approximately 15.5m long by 4.5m wide, is not visible as a structure on aerial photographs of 1989 and may have been completely removed.
