Flat section of a hull preserving five oars which are rendered in a very similar manner to those of A97. Their direction suggests that the ship was probably facing right. There are two horizontal bands, the lower thinner one is the keelline, while the thicker band must be the deck. Above deck is a decorative motif which is very similar to the one observable on A95 but is difficult to explain.
