The next big find will be kept private. No press. F em!

Can't be done on major deep water finds. You could just as easily keep a private moon shot secret.

I'm sympathetic to the salvagers but until new law is agreed upon or established over this which most courts agree to, it will remain tough regarding warships unless that nation has ceased to exist or has repudiated that link to that era or entered a treaty making such claims null and void.

It gets really vexing....I wonder if modern Germany claims Nazi warships or even East German warships?

Could the Russians claim Soviet ships and so forth.

I have a feeling given the new technology at hand and the increased feasibility in such finds that we will see new law agreed upon at some conference in Holland that we will sign on to.

Just a guess.
