In 2012, a birdwatcher named Sjaak van Dijk found a piece of a wreck that had washed up on the beach of the Dutch island of Terschelling near the Boschplaat sand bank and beach pole 27. It had been washed up on the beach of Terschelling due to a strong current. Some of the cargo was still present in the wreck, but the ongoing currents put it all at risk. Before the flood washed over the wreck again and took it away, he managed to take out fragments of the cargo: beads, Frechen pottery and a seal lead. The beads were in between large jars and the seal lead was used to fasten a bundle of copper bars together. Then the wreck washed away again.

The next day it was pushed further up the beach by a shovel and more cargo could be salvaged: copper rods bound together with seals, shards of pottery and glass and copper pots or kettles. The finds were brought to the local museum 't Behouden Huys.

There is too little information to say anything about the wreck. The finds date it to the early modern period.
