Glen as part of the federal arrest you have to notify anyone still
alive who would have a claim we also have taken it one step further in that we
have offered surviving families the right to see the operation, but the only
cargo we are interested in was owned by the USSR, but like the Spanish wrecks
now the Aztec Indians have filed claim because the Spanish wow claims the ship
wreck there’s stole the gold from them so where does it stop, there is
more gold on the bottom of the ocean than in all the banks of the world
combined

I
agree with you,but most Salvors I know will on discovering a wreck remove
as much of the quick money items in the initial dives to cover overheads and
lenghty court proceedings wich usually follow,before declaring the wreck and
trying to obtain salvage rights.
I
believe that any artefact that the government wants it should pay the salvor
good money for ,it should allso supply a historian at the governments expense
and any other additional equipment and personel for the monitoring and
documenting purposes ,but must not unreasonably obstruct the salvos from
performing his task , diving days are usually limited.I think this would
encourage Salvor's to work with governments.Wouldn't it be nice if the
company that is performing the salvage gives a percentage of the profits or
artefacts to the family or families of those who's lives where
lost on that perticular wreck , should they allso not be given
more authority in the salvage decissions I wonder.

Certainly something like the "Grotte Cosquer" should be
protected against vandels.
But various wrecks that are not nessesarily of historic value
should be open to salvage. It would help propel more development in
submarines by giving an extra monetary boost to those involved in subs.
That would in turn help propel other ventures. We should lobby Congress
!!

One
man's junk is another man's treasure... One see's a golden spanish coin,
another a sizable piece of gold.
