Where was the Chervona Ukraina sunk in 1941 (latitude and longitude)?
There are some pages in Russian describing the ship and I wonder if there are any Russian speaking Mahaloans who might be able dig up some coordinates?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

As early as the 1980 there nothing left of the ship above the surface.
The sinking you were referring too happened approximately at
N 44.43966 E 33.52753 in the South Bay at Sevastopol.

She was raised on 3 November 1947, repaired, and then used as a training hulk until 30 October 1950 when she became a target ship. On 10 May 1952, she was grounded to serve as a fixed target & by 1980 the Chervona Ukraina completely disappeared from above the surface. I could'nt find the exact location but the Latitudes & Longitudes approximately do come to N 44.43 E 33.527 in the South Bay at Sevastopol.
Hope this helps a bit.
Thanks.

Thanks very much for your effort, but I was looking for something a little more accurate than just the south bay.
If no other answers eventuate I will assume this is as good as we are going get and will be happy to select this as the best answer.
Thanks again.
