The vessels, each about 20 metres long, rise about five metres from the seabed of the harbour were discovered by HMS Enterprise, a British Royal Navy ship on a nine-month deployment to the Middle East, and her new survey motor boat, Spitfire, during two days of surveying work off Dubai. After surveyed the wrecks, they passed the data to Dubai's port authority and other mariners have been alerted to the presence of the dhows. The dhows Commander Derek Rae, the commanding officer of the Enterprise, said the chance to carry out the survey training, granted by the authorities in Dubai, was "invaluable". http://www.arabiansupplychain.com/article-8311-port-rashid-vessels-face-risk-from-sunken-dhow-wrecks/#.UOP_sm8b6Hg
