Jim Lad Posted March 2, 2023 Share #3 Posted March 2, 2023 I notice the video states that the sight hadn't yet been revealed to stop divers disturbing the site before it had been recorded. Doesn't the U.S. have legislation to protect historic shipwrecks? John mtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, 'treasure/artifact hunters' will have a GREAT deal of difficulty if they want to try and dive at the site of Shackleton's Endurance ... 😉 mtaylor 1 Quote Completed builds: Khufu Solar Barge - 1:72 Woody Joe Current project(s): Gorch Fock restoration 1:100, Billing Wasa (bust) - 1:100 Billings, Great Harry (bust) 1:88 ex.
