What implications would this mean for its preservation.

Aft 5” Gun Mount, USS Samuel B. Robert’s

June 22, 2022, image provided by Caladan Oceanic, the aft gun mount of the USS Samuel B. Roberts can be seen underwater off the Philippines in the Western Pacific Ocean. (Caladan Oceanic via AP) On June 22, Vescovo's team and U.K.-bases EYOS Expeditions found the wreck of USS Samuel B. Roberts at a depth of 22,621 feet (6,985 meters), making it the deepest shipwreck ever discovered. Vescovo's team identified the ship broken into two pieces on a slope. The USS Samuel B. Roberts, popularly known as the "Sammy B," was destroyed by the far more superior Japanese warship during the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the largest sea battle of World War II. That puts it 426 meters (1,400 feet) deeper than the USS Johnston, the previous deepest wreck.

NZ says only minor diesel spill, most of the fuel burned. Locals say there is oil on the coast, and fishing boats have to avoid the area (increasing costs and time).

HMS Tamar recovered the Manawanui's log book.

King Charles is on the way. (Commonwealth Summit, not over the shipwreck)
