The soviets drilled to over 12 kilometers (SG-3) on the Kola Peninsula working from 1970 to 1989.

Continental mass extends a lot deeper than the typical thin ocean crust. They probably never got near the mantle.

Was that drilling under the sea? I have to admit I am not very familiar with deep Earth drilling and posted this because it looked interesting.
