I have QSL's from the 1994, 1995 and 1997 operations. The 1994 operation
did not count for DXCC, and you are correct about the reason for it.

Off the coast of Dover there's a sandbank called Goodwin Sands. It's a
shifting and treacherous sandbank that lies just below the surface of the water
and has claimed many shipwrecks over the years.
Goodwin Sands only rises above the sea at a couple of very low "spring" tides
each year.
They do seem like an impressive job.
Just thinking back to 1995 for a moment, didn't the ARRL disallow the first
BS7 expedition because the operators had artificially created land above high
water with scaffolds - and then the second operation was allowed because they
perched on the rocks?
