Amateur Diver Stumbles Upon Century-Old WWI Shipwreck—Snaps It Up on Facebook for Mere $400
In the case of the Almond Branch, it had transported cargo all over the world. Though it was a merchant ship and not a military one, it had some weaponry for protection. But despite a gun mount being present at the wreck, the gun itself is missing. There is another piece of the ship that’s missing as well — one that Robinson hopes to find: the ship’s bell.
“So, if anybody finds the bell, they should report it to Receiver of the Wreck, who will ask me whether I want to keep it or not,” he said. “And, if they find the bell, then obviously, hands off my bell.”
