These wrecks are not too far from where I live. I used to live right beside the port at Lisahally and spent a lot of time there when I was younger, fishing the Foyle in the summer and exploring what everyone around there referred to as "the Yanks". I guess that must have been the remnants of the American base at Lisahally. Do you know how far off Malin Head the boats lie?
I haven't had the chance to enter the Foyle yet in SHIII, but are the Lisahally or the Derry docks there? I checked the nav. map and didn't see any.
Knowing the Irish government, I doubt much will be done to help preserve these sites. It's a shame.
