Question Possible virgin wreck, 12km off yorkshire coastline?

Morning all,

I have just been flicking through some prelimary survey work on one of our offshore sites that may become a 140MW offshore windfarm off the coast of yorkshire and noticed that there is a prominant wreck between the turbine rows.

Its about 100m long, 20m wide and about 6m high - This was measured by using 100KHz side scan so i would say the lenght and width are probably good, the height, may be at least 50% out.

The questions that I have:
1) Is anyone interested in diving this wreck? its in about 26m Chart datum, so about 30 ish metres with tide
2) is there a skipper that runs from the humber, bridlington or somewhere in that area we could hire?
3) if so to number two, and sufficent people are up for it, does anyone fancy going?
