Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil
Batelão de Cima is a small iron ship whose real name is unknown. Its nationality, who built it, why it sank and whether there were any victims are also unknown. The sinking is dated to around 1850, but this date is imprecise, and estimates range from 1850 to 1900.
Today the vessel is almost completely buried. With little exposed structure, the wreck offers little shelter, and marine life at the site is scarce.
