Subject: Please read me - Wreck & Artifacts

Hi all,

Three questions that I would love to present to the group :

1. Wreck - I am aware that Simon Mills is the legal owner of HMHS Britannic wreck. Where has all the discussion on raising the wreck come from. Was there a serious plan at any stage ?? This seemed to have appeared in the TIME magazine article of 1998.

2. Engines & Grand Staircase - I have visited that GUE web site, however can anyone give me a concise account of where exactly the divers went.

3. What became of all of the stored fittings in Belfast and do any photographs of them exist ?

Also is it true that she was released by the British admiralty went for refitting at H&W and was THEN recalled to service for a final time. I read this and it would have seemed to me that a lot of the work must have been redone again. What a terrible shame this ship was lost it would have been so beautiful to have seen her competing against Aquitania. Some times life isn't fair !!!!!!

Thanks for reading this.

Peter McGarry
