Section 38 Shipwreck 'Republic'

In 1987, shortly after the establishment of the Odyssey Company, it successfully salvaged the Spanish cargo ship "Tortugas Wreck", which sank in 1622, and according to international salvage law, 90% of the value of the wreck salvaged on the high seas was owned by the salvage owner, making a lot of money.

Later, it took Odyssey 12 years to discover the first valuable shipwreck, the Republic.

In 2007, the "Mercedes" was discovered, with a total weight of 22.2 tons of gold and silver coins, including 594,000 coins and religious images and jewelry, worth more than $1 billion

In 2011, the SSMantola was discovered and 600,000 ounces worth of silver was harvested.

In 2013, the Gairsoppa was salvaged and 240 tonnes of silver worth £150 million were found

Chen Dong purchased the 'Sea Treasure' and established the BootySalvage Marine Exploration Company, and the first salvage target was the 'Republic of China'.

Many people may not have heard of the "Republic of the Republic of the People", but it does not matter, as long as you know how much wealth has been sunk under the sea with the sinking of the "Republic of the Republic of the People".

A lot!! A very large number.

Tell me the story of the 'Republic of Japan'!!

In the immediate aftermath of the American Civil War, the USS Republic, laden with cargo and coins, set off from New York to support New Orleans' post-war reconstruction.

Reports at the time said that the "Republic" had more than $400,000 in gold and silver coins, and more than 130 years later, they were worth far more than they were at face value, with a $10 gold coin worth ranging from $3,000 to $500,000.

Odyssey spent 12 years, searched for a large amount of information, carefully analyzed the shipwreck of the "Republic" from the literature, used computers to simulate the route and speed of the year, in order to find the "Republic" on the bottom of the sea, the cost of investment was as high as more than 2 million US dollars, and finally, in 2003, the "Republic" was salvaged.

The news that the Odyssey Company salvaged the "Republic" shocked the United States at that time, and attracted great attention from many Americans.

In later generations, on the Internet, when it comes to shipwreck treasures, they will definitely mention the "Mrs. Acato", the story of the "treasure hunter" Mel Fisher's family "grinding the iron pestle into a needle", the "Awa Maru", the Chinese national treasure "Pekingese" skull on it, the "Mercedes", involving a billion dollars in treasure, Odyssey and the Spanish government have been in a lawsuit for 5 years, Odyssey lost the lawsuit, and the 1 billion dollars of treasure are all owned by the Spanish government, which is a treasure hunter's lesson, and the ' mentioned here' The Republic', these shipwrecks are so famous, in later generations, enter 'shipwreck treasures' on the 100-degree search box, you can see the outdated news and information of these shipwrecks.

The Republic of Japan can be ranked among the top 20 shipwreck treasures in the world.

In his previous life, Chen Dong was of course a famous shipwreck treasure.

Also know some information.

It took Odyssey a full 12 years to find it.

I found that this journey is a textbook of 'treasure hunting under the sea', without the element of luck, relying on persistence and the right method.

When the two founders of Odyssey, Greg Stim and John Morris, heard the story of the Republic, they went along with it, carefully analyzing the shipwreck of the Republic from the literature, using computers to simulate the course and speed of the year, and finally, the wreck was locked within 1,500 miles.

This is the first process of treasure hunting under the sea, the goal, to lock a shipwreck target, by consulting a large number of literature, speculation, simulated route, speed, lock the general range of the wreck.

The second process of the submarine treasure hunt, a word search, through the sonar carpet to search the seabed of the locked range inch by inch, there is no other way.

The 1,500-mile range was a very large area, and it was a very large work, and the Odyssey Company did this work for 12 years, and finally succeeded in finding the "Republic" under the ocean 100 miles off the coast of Georgia, and made a lot of money at once.

Therefore, in the treasure hunt under the sea, if you don't have the memory of your past life like Chen Dong, you can only do this, you can't rely on luck, you have to do these things very professionally.

In the previous life, Odyssey became a giant in undersea treasure hunting, and you know, Odyssey's research team includes world-renowned scientists, technicians and archaeologists. Their shipwreck surveys covered more than 17,000 square miles of ocean floor and more than 10,000 hours of investigation.

Chen Dong was ready to salvage the wreck, before the Odyssey company salvaged the 'Republic of China'.

Now, however, Chen Dong knew that the Republic was sinking 100 miles off the coast of Georgia.

He also had difficulty pinpointing the exact location of the wreck.

Because, the only information Chen Dong knows, under the ocean surface 100 miles from the coast of Georgia, this range is a little vague, with the coast of Georgia as a dot, there may be shipwreck sites in the sea area within a radius of 100 miles.

That's a bit of a big range.

It's certainly much easier than the 1,500-mile range that Odyssey searched, though.

In the previous life, the Odyssey seemed to have discovered the 'Republic' in May 2003.

There is only about half a year left for Chen Dong.

Chen Dong is ready to finish filming "Survival in the Wilderness", using the water-avoiding function of water droplets to dive to the bottom of the sea to find the 'Republic'.

Of course, the Republic is not the only shipwreck in the world.

From the first sail of mankind sailed into the sea, sailed in the sea, sank 3 million shipwrecks in the seas of the world, valuable, worthless, of course, of course, worthless shipwrecks may be less than 1%, you can't expect all the ships that sail on the seas to be full of gold and silver treasures, most of the ships are loaded with trade goods, tea, silk, olive oil, wine, spices and whatever, soaked in the sea, they must be gone.
