The Doria sank in about 225 - 250 feet of water off the Nantucket Lightship. The currents there are very strong and the wreck is in bad shape. Every year, divers die trying to salvage artifacts from that wreck. And I think the nanny gov has declared it off limits as a dive site, although that doesn’t stop determined adventurers.

Doria salvage items are pretty rare.

Wow, I guess I did hear about that.

However, since it took so long I’m wondering if many people, especially staff, might’ve taken stuff with them. OTOH, they may have been strictly under emergency evac and not been allowed.
