The Kilkea man's ship has been undiscovered for 107 years.
The wreck of Kildare man Ernest Shackleton’s ship Endurance has been found 107 years after it became trapped in sea ice and sank off the coast of Antarctica - in the Weddell Sea.
After 107 years, the wreck of Irish explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton's ship Endurance has been discovered.
A member of the expedition which has found it says footage shows it's intact and "by far the finest wooden shipwreck" he has seen.
The wooden ship had not been seen since it went down in the Weddell Sea in 1915, and in February the Endurance22 Expedition set off from Cape Town, a month after the 100th anniversary of Shackleton’s death on a mission to locate it.
The Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust said Endurance was found at a depth of 3,008 metres and approximately six kilometres south of the position originally recorded by the ship’s captain Frank Worsley.
