Fragmentary ship preserving parts of the hull and rigging towards the bow section. The keel line consists of two parallel lines that rise in a smooth curve. Wachsmann reads the two straight horizontal lines above it as the sheerstrake, above which is a ladder motif made up of a broad horizontal band intersected by vertical lines which is plausibly a fence similar to that depicted on the Kenamun and Nebamun ships. The rigging is of the boom-footed type and has multiple lifts, which would give it a terminus ante quem of ca. 1200 B.C.

The block was reused, hence nothing is known of its original context.
