Wreck of the SS North Sea

I found this wreck in my copy of "Peril at Sea" by Jim Gibbs and I'm wondering if anyone knows about it. The North Sea was a passenger liner on the Alaska-Seattle run which went aground on Porter Reef near Bella Bella BC on 2-13-1947. Salvage efforts were unsuccessful, but according to the book the remained intact and on the rock for quite a number of years afterwords. The location should be just east of the Ivory Island light.

Does anyone know anything about this and is any of the wreck visible?
