Talks & Docs: Shipwreck Hunting 101 with Terry Dwyer

Terry Dwyer has been a fixture in the commercial, recreational, and scientific diving community for more than four decades. He will give a presentation on his experiences in shipwreck hunting. According to the United Nations, there are approximately three million shipwrecks littering the oceans around the world. The opportunities for shipwreck exploration and discovery are as untapped as they are global. Here in Nova Scotia there are over 10,000 shipwrecks with less than 1% of them having been discovered. And today’s underwater explorers now have access to new affordable technology. This 45-minute presentation covers such topics as: how to research and find shipwrecks, the technology and tools of the trade, and search techniques used to locate shipwrecks.
