[DML] Re: What to call the Scuba Show... Diving for Deloreans?

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ownership of the dies is not that big a problem. The British
government sold the dies to a fishing company so the government no
longer has any interest or say in the use or the handling of the dies.
The ownership of the dies is now with the fishing company but maybe
they can be recovered under the Maritime Salvage laws. I am no expert
in that but if it is under the water and someone "salvages" them they
(the salvagers) may then become the rightful owners. This *could* be
interesting enough to get one of the cable channels to help. You would
not have to recover ALL of the dies, one or two would be enough.
Remember, each die set is composed of a female AND a male component so
if you wanted to get an actual working set you must recover the 2
parts that go together. In any search like this you begin with
research. You try to identify from a paperwork trail exactly what you
are looking for (the # and type of dies, markings, and weights, for
instance) who dumped them, where they were dumped, etc. These things
are heavy, you would need a large boat equiped with a crane capable of
lifing them. From research you will find out just how heavy they are.
There had to be some kind of document when the dies were sold to the
fishing company or maybe from the bankrupcy records. Of course we are
talking 25 years ago so much of what you would be looking for won't be
found.
