That’s pretty neat. If I understand the significance, in the way you channel wants me to, then this is my takeaway: this amateur sea floor explorer sent a commercially-available ROV/drone down to the seabed and used video to locate & extract wreckage from the sea floor. Pretty cool. Not making history here but you’re definitely in territory that many others have not been in. 150 feet down isn’t setting any world records but it is terrifyingly deep if the person isn’t prepared. I know because the deepest I’ve ever been personally was 90 feet and I found it terrifying. 150ft is deep. Deep enough to hold wrecks and structures of significant size and quite easily could kill a person. Retrieving something with equipment purchased on accessible consumer web sites is a pretty cool achievement when I think about it.

I've done this type of inspection for 6yrs. You guys should add contact information here.

Hi Richard, congrats on capturing that anchor. With regards to "mashing the gripper button"...I also used to do that with our BlueROV2 X-box controller. Then I decided to go into the controller settings in QGC and I switched the gripper controls to require holding the "shift" button to activate. This has prevented me from accidentally opening the gripper when I was really only trying to move the camera up or down. Keep up the great videos, we subscribed!
