Guardian story here.
The ship was protected from decomposition by the Black Sea's lack of oxygen in its deeper layers (found 2 km deep).
I saw a picture of this somewhere else that showed detailed carvings on some wooden parts as well as several coils of rope.
It is taken as confirmation that an image on a vase was a decent depiction of the Greek ships of that time.
The mast is toward the bow.
