Kiley B reef
Side-scan sonar image, unknown date. Doesn't look like there was much left of the wooden hull.

The Kiley B was sunk by the Artificial Reef Committee before the state's reef program began. Not listed in state records; I doubt there is anything left of it.

Army Tanks

M60 tanks reef
M60 tanks undergo a thorough cleaning before use as reefs

The Artificial Reef Program used four types of obsolete Army armored vehicles as artificial reef materials off the New Jersey coast. These were cleaned at local military bases, loaded onto barges for transport, and pushed off at their final destination. Once the Army had disposed of its excess inventory, the program ceased, around 1999. The Artificial Reef Program has sunk almost 400 tanks altogether, far too many to list them here in this website.
