Default Excellent project!

Can you show some photos of the tanks and bulldozers?? Assuming of course you took some under water.

Here's a couple of images, one Centaur tank and one of a bulldozer. There is more detail on our diving club web site www.southseasubaqua.org.uk and also a link to the tv news coverage we received (on You Tube). The project is also going to feature on a BBC 2 programme called 'Coast' in the summer. We took about a thousand images in all, but as you can imagine the visibility in the English Channel can be a little difficult for photographs. The 2 bulldozers are lying on their side, one tank is almost completely upside down, the other is at an angle of approx 45 degrees.

Regards

Alison

Default 20 metres down????

I'd drop a cable or two off a barge and haul out one of those tanks pretty quick. At least the gun would come up. I couldn't sleep knowing they were 60 ft. away. Good luck
