The stern is about the same, but coming towards the bow, you drop down onto the engines, no superstructure now above the engines, after the engines the wreck has collapsed completely with the bow being totally flat. The cranes are no longer attached to the wreck, but just lay on the sand. There was still a lot of marine life.
