Soldier's Girl Page #4
the early phases of treasure hunting.
After finding and
carefully cataloging his treasures,
Fisher sells most of it off
piece by piece.
Fisher believes that two billion more
is just waiting to be recovered.
Deep in the Mediterranean,
archeological marvels with no luck.
the sub and its robot arm
have been unable
to make a dent in the ocean floor,
which unexpectedly turns out to be
sticky and thick like clay.
Ballard's master plan
is just not working.
Do the wooden hulls of the Roman
vessels still exist just beyond reach?
Or has time stolen them away.
Ballard wonders if he'll ever find them.
The deep sea is always surprising me.
I every time I think I understand it,
it throws me another curve ball.
But that's okay. That's part of it.
I think it wouldn't be fun
if it if I knew it that well,
and it wasn't full of surprises.
Ballard decides to change
the way they use the NR-1.
He sends the sub out to do
what it does best,
to act as a high-tech bloodhound,
to roam over Skerki Bank
and to explore as much as possible
with its exceptional sonar senses.
Sir, request permission to rig ship
for deep submerges.
Rig ship for deep submerges.
Rig ship for deep submerges, aye sir.
Rig ship for deep submerges.
Will the NR-1 discover the unknown,
the unexpected?
Ballard will just have to wait and see
By working to develop
new underwater technology,
Ballard has revolutionized deep
sea archeology.
At the same time,
he has inadvertently helped to blow
the world of treasure hunters wide open
Now anyone with $150,000
to spare can buy an ROV,
a remotely operated search vehicle,
right off the shelf and set off for gold.
Still there are only a handful
of successful deep-sea salvagers.
Seahawk Deep Ocean Technology,
out of Tampa, Florida, is one of them.
Seahawk hit the jackpot in 1989
discovering a 17th century Spanish
galleon, heavy with gold and jewels,
off the Florida coast
in 1,500 feet of water.
Seahawk is looking for treasure again,
this time in the seas off the coast
of Georgia.
Michael Reardon,
Seahawk's current expedition leader,
sees himself as a treasure hunter
with a difference.
That's one of our goals,
is to choose shipwrecks
that are archeologically important
as well as having a commercial cargo.
So we're playing a fine line
between the archeological community
and the out-and-out smash-and-grab
treasure hunters, which we're not.
Reardon is after
a 19th-century paddle wheel steamer,
which they've code named
The Golden Eagle,
to keep her identity hidden
from other salvagers.
Now they've narrowed the search
