Tony, you asked "How far is the (68°44.5' S, 52°18' W) point from the place you've predicted?". We did not predict a place, rather an area of where the wreck was expected to be found. I would say that the Agulhas II's position as given above, when they first discovered the Endurance, was inside that area. But I do not yet know where the wreck is actually situated. The underwater vehicles seems to be able to operate several kilometers away from the mother vessel.
