E-110 Beach Assault

 

HRD, Inc's Underwater Marine archaeologist, Robert Westrick, organized a gathering of HRD personnel and stockholders for the sole purpose of diving on E-110 and identifying several "hotspots". Unfortunately, the "best" of the 3 days was the day that most everyone arrived and after that it went down hill (weather wise) from there. 

For those of you who believe that the sea has a mind of her own, and protects what she has claimed, the weather we faced had great meaning. She is withholding a great treasure from us, and when ever she feels threatened by us in either numbers or being close to her treasure, she strikes up an east wind with rain and high seas to keep us from claiming what she has taken. Just as she had done this weekend.
