Just to play the devils advocate for a minute.
If we take it for granted the story is true. The diver recovered a bad with money, guns and some other substance. Without prior knowledge or testing at the scene we are assuming it was drugs but it could be something other. Also even if the guns are real who is to say that they weren't legally owned and therfore legally recovered and returned to the owners along with the money and the other substance.
Yes, the story sounds suspicious but that doesn't garrantee that a criminal act occured.

OP glad things turned out okay for you. Personally I wouldn't worry about some punks searching the internet to find ya. I would however phone the police, not that it would get you anywhere or they would be inclined to investigate but it is worth a try 
Couple drug dealers down may just save some kid somewhere - I mean there is still hope....Like you, I would have been pretty shocked at what I had found and certainly not have doddled with them. It is too late now to re-do things and tell them you found nada but again I'd phone the police or go back and ask for your cut (j/k).
Recently, maybe two years ago, I ended up with a gun that had a silencer. Shaking I phoned an officer and was essentially told I messed his day up. He was close to retirement and didn't need the headache :shocked2::doh: Anyway, if you do call don't be surprised if they could care less but it is worth a shot at least IMO.

That's the problem with the world today-people taking risks trying to make a fortune overnight. You did the right thing; stuck to something you knew (diving), made a respectable profit, then moved on. Very mature and responsible. BTW, why in the world did they open the bag in front of you?? That sounds like a sloppy business practice to me. And what is "M*&*J", some kind of candy that melts in your mouth, not in your hand?

Wow.....what a DB
Yeah....what they said. Maybe it was bags of baking soda to be put in the church refigerators to absorb the smelll from the bread and wine just before the ministers (who were in the boat and dropped the bag) went to make a donation to the charity that they were involved in "The Re-enactment of the Civil War with rubber guns".
All kidding aside, I do agree that while it is very suspect, nothing is known for sure.
