Gold found on the ocean bottom!

[Darren in NC]

Christina Young is a tech diver who's been with the likes of John Chatterton (Deep Sea Detectives) and Gary Gentile (Popular Dive Guide Series). She has a great website, too. Below is a link that I found after Capt. Dan (wreckvalle) gave me the name of the vessel in another post. Gary and John brought up a safe off the SS Carolina. I read about it before but never saw the pics of the goodies. Great stuff!

Wow, what an excellent find. Thanks for posting the link Darren.

Great work by the divers in both finding the wreck and recovering the safe from that depth.
