Emile, have you ever seen the old Cousteau documentary about the Brittanic? The old lady in it was my favorite, a star!

There is a possible expedition to the Brittanic. But we need a permit from the wrecks owner, the  Greek authorities and the British authorities..

> Design depth is 400 meter/ 1200 Ft.  The sub functioned very well at open sea and 200 meter depth. However , diffucult to board with waves over 2 Ft.  The Ocean reef comset is rated for 250 Meter but functioned with the surface boat 1000 meter away and we 200 meter deep!
