Well I dug into the subject a little bit more. I talked to a few student archeloegeists[SIC], and few others who know the OHA and said that in order to search for shipwrecks or objects of historical value, I must apply for a permit, register the device, and be a "professional" archeleogeist[sic].nthe permit process can take quite a few months and I must have a government official onboard when I find something. Now on the other hand if I lost my swim ladder or outboard motor, I may sidescan to my hearts content without government even caring. Now ain't this confusing?
