'Baltic Ghostships'
Discovery's of amazing shipwrecks in the Baltic Sea
By Carl Douglas
Note:- The New book entitled 'Baltic
Ghostships' with amazint shipwreck images by Jonas Dahm will
be available at Eurotek. |
"It has been called "one of the best
kept secrets of the diving world" ... perhaps as many as
one hundred thousand wrecks of all descriptions. The Baltic
Sea is a treasure trove of historically interesting and well-preserved
wrecks. Some have foundered on the many rocks and shoals of
the difficult Baltic Sea, some have been sunk in the many conflicts
that have plagued the area while others have just sunk in bad
weather. What unites them is the amazing state of preservation.
They are literally time-capsules and diving them is truly like
visiting another era. Everything from wooden ships of the 1600's
to battle cruisers and submarines to the scores of unheralded
merchantmen.
In this talk Carl will try to show some of the teams discoveries
in the past decade - as well as some wrecks found by other divers." |
