Line up your boat between the (red?) marker at the southern end of the two markers indicating a shoal or rocks. Echo lies about 70 feet straight back from the red marker towards the island. I understand "straight back" can mean a number of angles, but the distance is pretty accurate.

If you have GPS set it to find, then anchor directly on:

43 29.912 / 071 15.274

Descend the anchor line to the target and it will be there. Depending on satellite geometry overhead you will either land right on it or be within maybe 15 feet.

Those are the coordinates of the cursor in one of the images I posted-and the cursor is centered on the wreck as you can see.

Hope it helps. If you like history this is worth a quick look-and that is one huge engine.
