May 05, 1955 - Greek ship high and dry off beachy-held. Wrecked Germania brings trade to Local Boatmen.: Motorboat trips around the wreck of the Greek Vessel Germania may become a regular holiday attraction this season at Estbourne. The Vassel is high and dry on the rocks at Beachy Head - and it has been said that her removal will present a major problem- and may have to be cut up into small sections. Eastbound Corporation what it removed because of the danger of her breaking up in a storm and creating haven on the beaches. It is also thought that she may act as a groyne thus preventing the shingle replacing itself with the tide.
