At this point is shipwreck pole "OC60", recognisable by a striped pole (white/blue) with a red image of a ship on it. This is a very complete water ship (type of fishing vessel) from the 17th century, about 16 metres long and 5.5 metres wide. It lies preserved in the soil.

Hundreds of shipwrecks were found during the reclamation of Flevoland. Often the ships date from the 17th and 18th centuries. Flevoland is the largest reclaimed shipwreck graveyard in the world. You can see these shipwreck piles, among others, when you cycle the shipwreck route through Lelystad.
