Månis Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Back in 2003, this ship was found by accident when a ship who searched after a swedish DC-3 airplane ( who got shot down by the russians during the cold war, search for the catalina affair ) saw it on their monitors. Standing almost completly intact on 130 meters depth, this two masted shipwreck seems to be an old dutch flute. It's nicely decorated but it seems like it carried no guns. It's belived to be around 400 years old, wich makes it even older than Vasa. The identity of the ship is still unknown. Later on, the research ship returned and sent down a remote controlled camera to record the wrecksite. ( The diving part starts around 5:08 ) Enjoy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
