Things you've found under water

[Red Dragon]

I found:-

- Broken fishing rod
- few bottles
- 30' ropes
- Plastic bags
- condom (I have no idea how the hell it ended up there)

well other than that nothing else... in Oman if we lose something we dive behind it
Diving equipment are expensive here...

Utila, my daughter was there getting her DM cert. Another student lost her engagement ring while diving. A few days later, she saw it on the finger of another student diver from another shop. I still can't get over how lucky she was to get it back.

I dive in N.C a lot . Its wreck diving in the gulf stream . Ive gone so many times its sick . On this wreck called the Shurz its frm 1800 sunk in 1918 . It was called the Geier before that and was German owned taken over by us Navy . Well ive been on it many time and this one time i found and odd looking rock almost rectangle in shape . Well a little bit of muratic acid and some baking soda uncovered a plaque . It was in German and shiny brass it said something like machinist reservist something and name of ship Geier , it was pretty cool . Ive found a watch worth 2,500 and odds and ends . On a job ive found a 1930 coke bottle in the middle of nowhere while jetting out a pipe . This pipe was put in over 70 yrs ago . It was in about 4 ft of mud , with zero viz it was a miracle i found it lol .Here is my list i cant put everything but these are my favorites . A shell casing frm a wreck , i took the cordite out of course . A couple of brass spikes . and of course the brass plaque.

I found 2 bombs/Torpedos/Airplane fuel tanks, maybe from WWII off the west coast of IE Island/ Okinawa Prefecture/Japan in about 150' of water, just out side the Marine Range. I do not have photo's but they were about 6' to 8' long and about 24" in diameter. They had tail fins. Does any one know if these would be US or Japanese, or if they are external fuel tanks or torpedos?
