Recently we’ve attracted some bad press about the  above trips, it’s quite good reading and hopefully we’ll get some exposure out of it. I especally like the bits about lots of divers paying big money to dive with us.

The issue of artifact recovery has been around for ages and there’s no right or wrong. For example I understand exactly that  wrecks in the Great Lakes are well preserved and should be protected, but a wreck in warm salt water doesn’t last long - a lot of our wrecks will only be piles of steel plates in the next few years, and also a lot of our wrecks are non-descript 20 year freighters, hardly historical.

The one subject that has been mentioned that is clearly incorrect is our treatment of the USS Lagarto. Anyone that has been on one of our very special Lagarto trips know that artifact recovery is forbidden, and do you know what? no-one has ever expressed an interest in doing so.

Feel free to leave comments.
