Having completed the investigation, MAIB has now donated the wreck to create a “beneficial educational opportunity”, the organisation said.
Factual evidence gathered as part of the investigation has also been given, “to enable Cranfield to create a realistic scenario of a fishing vessel capsize”.
The scenario will enable trainee accident investigators to apply and test their knowledge by conducting a simulated accident investigation.
Nicola Faith will be renamed Pisces II and will replace the vessel Pisces, which has been used at Cranfield for many years.
