# Vessel illustrations: sources and limits

Saint Lucia Policy Analysis · Anse Cochon inquiry coverage

**AI-generated illustration · Not a measured reconstruction**

The two empty-boat illustrations were generated using inspected source photographs as visual references. They are explanatory images, not photographs of the boats, survey plans or reconstructions of the collision. No vessel registration or name was generated.

## Ocean Angel layout illustration

File: `assets/ocean-angel-layout-illustration.png`

Reference photographs: Photo 08 (beach profile), Photo 09 (dockside bow/interior) and Photo 10 (empty interior). Their provenance and limitations are recorded in `photos.json`.

The illustration follows visible features including a light exterior, red interior and gunwales, red-and-white transverse benches, aft console and one outboard. Its pale canopy follows the dock/interior photographs. The beach photograph has a blue canopy; choosing one for the illustration does not establish the collision-night condition.

Hull proportions and unseen fittings are synthesized. Underwater form, exact dimensions, bench spacing, load capacity, engine make/model/power, safety equipment and the configuration on 18 July 2026 cannot be inferred from the illustration. The registration history behind SL077875 and SL077857 remains unresolved.

## Cazorla Jr. layout illustration

File: `assets/cazorla-jr-layout-illustration.png`

Reference photograph: the unedited Photo 01 source, associated with the Mango Tours listing and showing SL078180. The public Photo 01 is now an AI-assisted privacy edit with softened faces and regenerated pixels elsewhere; it is not new evidence of lettering or fine details.

The illustration uses a light hull, dark rubbing strip, blue interior and transverse benches, one outboard and an aft console. The source photograph contains support tubes extending outside the view but no visible canopy fabric. The illustration therefore shows tubes without fabric; this does not establish that the vessel lacked a canopy. People and personal belongings are omitted from the interpretation.

Hull proportions, unseen fittings and some colour details are synthesized. The steering wheel is not visible from this illustrative angle. White fittings and an orange console patch are visual simplifications, not evidence of specific technical or safety equipment. Dimensions, exact bench spacing, engine rating and collision-night configuration are not established.

## How to read these images

Compare each illustration with its named source photographs. The unedited source photographs support the historical visual assessment; the illustrations simplify layout. The disclosed Photo 01 privacy edit is a display copy, not independent visual authentication. Neither image authenticates vessel identity independently. They contain no collision, damage, occupants or measured positions.

Each illustration is displayed with its evidence-status label. Ten source photographs remain publicly accessible unchanged. Photo 01’s public image and download are the privacy-edited copy. Its source hash is preserved separately from the public-file hash in `photos.json`, and the unedited source is retained in the non-public research record.
