Re: [DML] Want to dive DeLorean dump site. stupid crabs!



Being a certified diver myself, I have seen the effects of sea water on
various different metals doing wreck dives. Before any effort would go into
recovering these molds, someone should be sent down to see if they are even
worth trying to bring up. Sea water extremely corrosive on just about any
metal and I can only guess what these things look like after sitting on the
bottom of the ocean for nearly 20 years -- unfortunately there is a high
likelihood that they are trashed by now.

It would also be critical to know what depth of water they are sitting in.
If they are below 120 feet in depth it would make recovery efforts much more
difficult because it would require a person with special certifications and
equipment to go down that deep.

Does anyone even have a clue what the molds were made out of? Please say it
wasn't regular steel, if so, this whole conversation is moot they are
nothing more then rusty anchors by now.
