Upper Wicomico #1

The frames were doubled, each timber measuring approximately 15 centimeters (6 inches) in width and 15 centimeters (6 inches) in thickness (sided and moulded, respectively).   The width between frame sets was approximately 38 centimeters, (15 inches) resulting in a room-and-space measurement of approximately 68 centimeters (26.5 inches).  

Limber holes were noted in the frames indicating that the wreckage was from an area near the base of the hull where bilge water was allowed to run freely between frames.
