Shipwrecks and sunken treasure. Man's fascination with tales of the high seas conjures up a kaleidoscope of images - some of pirates holding Spanish conquistadors at bay and Greek explorers traveling the Silk Road in search of red fabrics as rich as Thai rubies.
 The history between man, Mother Nature and vessels is romantic and mysterious,a tale woven with colorful legends, superstitions and extraordinary circumstances.
Today, those stories continue to be woven in remote places where treasures may be shipped in steel containers, rather than in stronghold boxes and the main characters are professional divers, salvage masters and technical experts. Their goal is complicated and execution is almost an art form - so much so, that few people dare to confront Mother Nature's fury, the mechanical intricacies posed by both modern and dated vessels or situations created by human error.
The experts at TITAN Marintime, though, are more than ready for the challenge.
