Wrong about gold?

Do you know of any examples of a company claiming gold in a shipwreck, only to come up empty during salvage operations?

looking for info on a certain shipwreck.

I believe its a ship wreck any way. my best friend and I take trips up to harrisville Michigan. he has a cottage right on lake Huron. (saw this in person) we came across this wreckage of a ship almost beached. some of it is sticking out of the water. was wondering if any one here lives around harrisville or know anything about it, maybe locals will know something? don't know what kind of vessel it is, it looks to be about at least 100 years or older. im sure i found it on google maps. i have the coordinates for it. 44°43'29"N 83°17'11"W. My friend and I would greatly appreciate it. peace and love to all!!

Titanic: Then vs Now

Our friend Mike from Oceanliner Designs posted a pretty cool video where he recreates some iconic photos of Titanic as she sits now. Not sure if it’s a sim software he’s using, but still really cool and I thought some of you would enjoy it.

Which shipwreck(s) would you like to see found?

For me, it would be the USS Gambier Bay and USS Hoel since they have the potential to be the next deepest shipwrecks ever discovered.

A couple of basic mosaics I made using footage from the wreck of IJN Akagi

Made these in a few minutes using footage from the 2023 survey of IJN Akagi, the 3 mosaics covers the end of the hanger decks near the stern to an area just behind the second elevator pit amidships'. As you can see the damage is quite severe here with the hanger decks badly collapsed inwards. Feedback on these are welcome and will help me create better work in the future;

Spanish archaeologists have successfully removed a 2,600-year-old shipwreck from waters off the country's southeastern coast, two decades after the relic was initially found. The ancient Phoenician shipwreck dates back to the 7th century B.C.E, and was discovered in 1994.
