The Sound of Mull Archaeological Project (SOMAP) was carried out
between 1994 and 2005 to map and assess the condition of a wide
range of underwater and interdidal wrecks and coastal structures in
the Sound of Mull, on Scotlands north-west coast. The study was
undertaken by many volunteers under the auspices of the Nautical
Archaeology Society and demonstrates the value of projects carried
out by trained volunteers. This account of the project combines the
results of documentary research into archives and old photographs,
high resolution marine geophysics, and measured surveys both on
land and underwater. A total of 16 wrecks and four sites were
examined and are summarised, with detailed accounts of three sites
of wrecks or shipping-related debris of particular interest. An
accompanying CD includes a wide range of remote-sensing images.
