The first objective of the day was to take a group photo. With various members of the group carrying out their duties it was quite a job mustering everyone. The result is a group photo which all of us will cherish for many years to come.

Today we concluded operations with the deep sea divers. Operations planned for today including placing a retrieval mechanism on a site and aid divers in the retrieval of one important object from the seabed. Operations were delicate but meticulous planning ensured that all went well.

After a few hours at sea we returned to port to safely deposit the object in fresh water. This will ensure that the object will not deteriorate after many centuries in seawater. Once again the Carabinieri did an excellent job in supporting the fieldwork.

Also in the morning, our engineer Jason fixed a mechanical problem on the Carabinieri’s motor launch! This enabled us to proceed with normal operations.
