A terrific job! 
I like checking out wrecks and look for them myself at times. Someone else had a shipwreck collection a while back but they were all non-visible ones so I didnt find it interesting. With GE you want to see stuff so this is nicely done. 
Heres a couple more for the collection...
Santa Domingo
More German ones in the replies below the original post.
Youve added my other ones. I was sure I had more than that, maybe ill try looking for more after.
There might be 1 in this post, i didnt check the whole thing out.

There are so many along this coastline that I get the impression it is some sort of third world salvage operation.

They seem to show up in clumps along the African coast, salvage or tide hard to tell. There are 20 or so more in this placemark.

Hi,
My first post here. Congrats on this great collection.
I have 4 more (2 of them which I've dived / snorkeled) off the coasts of Venezuela, Ecuador and Chile. As far as the program tells me, none of them have been marked by the community yet.
Cheers
EDIT: 4 more wrecks added in Anguilla, Honduras and Oregon
EDIT: Added the Otavi wreck in Namibia

Hi again,
I have added the wreck of the "Otavi" in the post above this one. While not on the Skeleton Coast, it sits in a similar setting in Namibia. It turns out that there are significantly less wrecks in the Skeleton Coast than in some other places, such as the coast of Mauritania. In fact, I haven't been able to locate any more. If anybody wants to give it a try, here are some handy maps and photos of the sites:

Good luck!

Found information on one of the wreaks at (8 42 02 N 171 13 18 E)
http://marshall.csu.edu.au/Marshalls/html/history/Taroa_ToreshimaMaru.html
http://marshall.csu.edu.au/Marshalls/html/japanese/Taroa/Taroa.html
This is the one that got me looking for them in this area, never found another with such detailed information.

Here are another 2 wrecks in the river leading to Um Qasr in Iraq.
The discoloration of the water is the current kicking up the sand from the seabed.
I have some close up photographs of these if anyone is interested.

The other wreck is about half a mile away from it, in a south easterly direction. You will see the water swirling around it.
