The Beverwijk was a steel hulled suction cutter dredge. She was scuttled on the 6th May 1963 and now lies upside down in 46m of water in the ships graveyard with her bow pointing toward Barwon Heads. The suction pipe is still prominent on the bow section as is a lot of her pumping gear.
There is a large shaft with a large wheel at each end at the southern end of the wreck.
The hull can be penetrated in calm seas. Lots of fish life, see our gallery.
