By way of catching up, we have produced a Summer double issue and have the good fortune to be able to publish with a color cover. Coinciding with the Santa Barbara relocation is the appointment, by the Board of Directors, of the first members of the HDS USA Advisory Board. This distinguished group of senior diving professionals, with extensive backgrounds in diving medicine, technical development, commercial, military and sports diving, bring in excess of 300 years of diving experience to the Society. Most of their biographies are the size of town phone directories, and have had to be severely edited for publication. We are honored and gratefulfortheir willing offers of service, and hope that we have done their biographies justice. Details start on page 4. The recently introduced, Founding Benefactor class of membership has proven to be very popular with over half of the thirty available memberships already taken. An opportunity still exists to acquire one of these unique memberships and details of it's benefits are noted on page 9. On the international front, the ongoing formation of the HDS USA as a nonprofit corporation has, by law, changed the conditions that govern our relationship with the HDS in UK.

  • As a Result of Recommendations of Several Committees Convened by the U.S
    ADVANCED DEEP SEA DIVING EQUIPMENT 12 William A. Danesi General Electric Company Ocean Systems Programs Philadelphia, Penn. INTRODUCTION As a result of recommendations of several committees convened by the U.S. Navy supervisor of diving for the purpose of reviewing conventional Navy diving equipments, General Electric Company proposed a deep sea diving system development program to the Navy. This program, a proposal for the survey and engineering evaulation of deep sea heavy duty diving equipment, was approved by the Navy on February 2, 1970, and the program was initiated. The overall goal of this program is to equip the Navy salvage diver with equipment and tools that will enable him to perform work of the same quality and in times approaching that done on the surface. PAASK V DIVING SYSTEM Mark V denotes two distinct deep sea diving systems. The air outfit (fig. 12.1) is for heavy duty diving and is issued to vessels and shore activities whose function is to undertake extensive salvage operations. The helium oxygen outfit is a special system issued only to submarine rescue units. The BREAST - PLATE Figure 12.1 Deep-sea diving outfit. 203 deep sea diving outfit consists of the helmet and the dress, which provide water tightness; weights for overcoming positive buoyancy gained by the volume of the helmet and the inflated dress; hoses and control valves for furnishing air; and a nonreturn valve used to prevent seawater from entering and air from escaping from the dress in the event of accidental rupture of the air hose. This Mark V system has been used for many years with remarkable success.

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, And all I ask, oh august Court, is a case to steer me by.1 INTRODUCTION When Erasmus mused that "[a] common shipwreck is a source of consolation to all" . he quite likely did not foresee inconcinnate free-for-alls among self-styled salvors. Without doubt the Dutch scholar also could not imagine legal brawls involving self-styled 'finders' from Ohio, British and American insurance underwriters, an heir to the Miller Brewing fortune, a Texas oil millionaire, an Ivy League university, and an Order of Catholic monks.

  • Volume 28 No. 2 Fall 2017
    The Nanticoke River Shipwreck, Dorchester County, Maryland By Jeffrey M. Enright rchaeologists conducted an emergency underwater archaeology investigation of a A shipwreck discovered by the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA), in the Nanticoke River near Vienna, Dorchester County, Maryland. The wreck was encountered during the removal of debris from a damaged dolphin-and-fender system, one of a pair marking the shipping channel beneath the bridge that carries U.S. Route 50 over the river. Inadvertently, commercial divers brought up the keel, keelson, and other timbers onto the work barge. Here, the MDOT SHA inspector recognized the timbers were from an old shipwreck and notified the MDOT SHA archaeologist. The following day, the timbers were lifted by crane onto a tugboat and then trucked to the Maryland Archaeology Laboratory, in St. Leonard, where they were stabilized. Immediately, a consultant team from SEARCH, Inc., was brought in to document the recovered timbers and ensure additional shipwreck timbers did not remain in the water. The archaeological investigation included on-site marine remote-sensing and archaeological diver investigations; recordation of shipwreck features removed from the site by MDOT SHA, with analyses including wood speciation and dendrochronology; and archival research to establish historical context. The remote sensing survey encompassed approximately 2.9 ac (1.2 ha), which included not only Maryland DOT SHA Chief Archaeologist, Julie Schablistky, tagging planks from the Nanticoke the waters from which the MDOT SHA recovered the River shipwreck.
