KEC or with other words DTM was a military transport ship from the WW2. It is sunk on the relation between Piran and Strunjan about 2,9 km of Madona peninsula in Piran (SLOVENIA). About the wreck there is very little known. We know that it belonged to italian navy and that it was probably sunk in the spring of 1945 by an aeroplane.
Steel hull is 47,3 m long and 6,1 m wide; it has 3 smaller propellers and 2 rudders.  It is lying upside-down on the deck, on the sandy bottom 24 meters deep. It is slightly tilted on the left side.
