I doubt there will be any salvage. That guy put in a lot of effort to locate that wreck and speaking from first hand experience, I wouldn't share numbers either. If you want to dive it, then find it. Within a week of the wreck becoming public, it would be stripped.I just spoke to one of the dive shops who told me there are no commercial dive boats or boats that can be chartered in that area. There few that there are, are on the South shore. Then the word is the guy who found it will put restrictions on it so that other people can’t dive it, salvage rights. The only way to do this would be to be able to find the wreck and get there with a personally owned boat before you can no longer legally dive it.
Well, you can forget about this Submarine.
I read an article yesterday that said he will disclose the exact location once he is done surveying the wreck. Is that true? Is he getting the salvage rights to this wreck? Do you have interest in diving it? Give me a call later.I know the divers. They are not disclosing location or depth, just that it is below recreational limits.

Military wrecks are mostly protected from commercial salvage anyways.
It was sponsored and paid for by the government according to NavSource.Is this really a military wreck? It wasn't owned by the Navy or U.S. government, no live ordinance, not a military grave either.
Well then,Depending on depth I would dive it just for history reasons.
Details, details.It was sponsored and paid for by the government according to NavSource.
