We had a Modern Wrecks project to bring the maritime component into line with the terrestrial by recording post 1945 shipwrecks. All the records are online via PastScape http://www.pastscape.org.uk/ I published a brief report on this in the Newsletter of MEDIN who funded the work http://www.oceannet.org/marine_data_newsletter/documents/mdn_jul_11.pdf and spoke about it at the Historical and Maritime Archaeology Conference in Leicester.

I am planning a project focusing on the material culture aspects and practices surrounding boating and its relationship to heritage. Thanks in advance for any ideas, or advice!
