Just to get ahead of your next insult, I am a coxswain grade II Irish Coast Guard SAR, a PADI instructor, I have worked as a commercial diver where the biggest thing I was tasked to recover was a 30 ft truck, I have over 10,000 nautical cruise miles logged and I am currently employed as a Paramedic. And I doubt I scrape the bottom of the barrel qualification wise of some of the people who have urged you be more cautious with your engineering and seamanship skills. Take the hint and don’t glorify the risk taking. The only positive thing about your adventures should be how you have learned not to make the same mistakes again. But that would require a level of critical thinking way past your current level. I cannot comment on your level experience but again I urge you not to glorify risk taking and foolhardiness. Be safe. I wont be answering your next insult.

@@COM70 Mate, that was beautiful! PADI Divemaster 1979, EMT, have raised a few boats (one was 60ft. Motor Yacht). Most intervening years as a safety diver working on the prevention end of things but called up here & there working the sad end enough to know yours are "words of iron" (Outlaw Josey Wales). The movie popped into my head just now perhaps because the same holds true: Calculated confidence & high capability come thru extensive training & experience. It does NOT suffer fools. Enjoying the company of a small circle of active & retired SF friends since '79 in San Diego, who's influence drives home this precision point of survival in any dangerous endeavor. This guy rejecting even professional criticism/advice out-of-hand as "haters" is the height of careless foolishness. Perhaps made worse by the "Florida Man" phenomenon. Hope he and those he gathers around survive the experience. His is the exact same attitude that caused the decapitation of a school mate on a beach in Mexico in 1976. The guy was "slingshot" yanking a stuck 4x4 out of a beach bog using a 30m military surplus nylon air cargo strap. Two YFD family friends got in a heated argument with him demanding he give time to get the huge crowd moved back. Told them to FO, "I know what I'm doing!" You gather the result. The young teenage girl didn't know what hit her. Her best friend beside her was propelled 15ft in the air suffering bone deep lacerations across shoulder & chest. I do not like fools & posers. Unfortunately our present GoPro, selfie, YT world has seen an exponential rise in their number.

Bro your half right the anchor is dropped at the gps mark and the diver can pull himself to the point and use less energy and air by swimming the whole way trying to hit a mark.

Great work bro. I do salvage diving in NY. I wouldnt have done anything different. Get that engined pickled asap. And you will be good. All of those electric ports are pater proof. You should be good.

[@Kowalski301]

Most of the black boxes are probably ok because they are potted. The issue is the wiring harness, and boxes that has wires going directly into it and not using solid pins for connectors. Water, especially at 100 ft/40 PSI for this long, will force it's way into every single inch of wire under the insulation, and fill them with saltwater. The "problem" is that they would work perfectly fine for many months to come, but the wires will eventually corrode away and create all kinds of electrical issues if not the entire harness is replaced.

[@9571kent]

If you wouldn't have done anything different, I'm glad you don't work where I live... There's an eyelet on top of the motor, anyone who's ever actually looked at an outboard would know that. Tying an anchor rope to the foot of the engine loosely is the farthest thing from safe. And what idiot opens the air tank completely when filling an airbag? He could have killed everyone on the surface. The way that bag breached from 90' woulda been the equivalent of a bomb going off had it hit the boat

[@9571kent]

And that engine is shot. He was full throttle when it injested water. Water won't compress. It snapped every rod in that engine

Crazy was cutting it loose in the first place!!!

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. What vessel doesn't have a few spare lines onboard? Would dragging the engine back to port have put the boat and crew in danger? It looks like the damage was already done. I think the skipper panicked.

Motor would be stuffed!! Will need a whole new rebuild, with what your going to replace it will be just as cheap to buy a new one mate. Even if it does kick over after being flushed and parts replaced, it will never be reliable because the salty residue will stay in different components and eventually be drag through the motor. Ands there’s nothing worse when you are 50klms offshore and it won’t start😬

I guess that's why you have two..... Nah but for real, motors done
