There was a jagged hole about nine inches in diameter through the garboard strake and the strake next to it on the port side about five feet from the stem.

Her bows were considerably damaged, while amidships a portion of her keel and both garboards had been stove in, leaving a jagged hole nearly two feet in diameter.

The whole of her framing was set up and secured, and the garboard and two adjacent streaks on each side bolted to and that was all.

The keel is 14 in. deep, the part below the rabbet of the garboard or lowest strakes of the planking, being 11 in. deep, and 4½ in. thick at the bottom.

The ship’s in splendid condition; there’s next to nothing wrong with her but the garboard streak and the sternpost.
