What are you going to do?
The wreck diver training begins by reviewing the guidelines for investigating and leaving wrecks undisturbed. Remember that wrecks still have an owner and may have great historical value. Sometimes there may even be ammunition or explosives left behind. Naturally, you must not touch those. Some wrecks are even protected by legislation aimed at preserving their historical and cultural significance.
