Mike Sawkins (MacArtney Underwater Systems) and divers Andy Rose and Duncan Cole (Learn Scuba & Historic Wreck Recovery)accompanied by David Sear (University of Southampton) and Mark Dunkerley (English Heritage) used a hand held diver Didson system to image the seabed over St Peter's church Dunwich in less than ideal conditions. The aim was to see if the Didson could image the seafloor during zero visibility. Despite the conditions the Didson was able to visualise the seafloor.
