The initially unexplored outcrop that triggered the sinking was dubbed Noonday Rock, in a more or less macabre twist. However, while the name of the ship would be remembered, the exact location of the wreck would be forgotten over time. Despite attempts of some of the Noonday’s crew, the cargo was also lost.

At least, that was just the case until the 2014 NOAA survey. An NOAA volunteer examining sonar scans of the seabed discovered something else in the depths that happened to be about the same size as the Noonday. Perhaps better, this unknown object was found near the rock that bears the name of the sunk ship. Researchers discovered the outline of a clipper ship after using an ROV to start exploring the site.
