I want to be a treasure hunter also, but the fact is that most artifacts are better preserved if left in place, particularly in salt water. Most divers don't have the knowledge or equipment necessary to properly preserve artifacts after being taken out of the water. For example, if you drive through the Florida Keys you are likely to see many cannons of historical significance falling apart because they were not properly cared for after being removed from the sea. The fact is that most submerged cultural resources have more historical significance than monetary value. Would you remove bricks from the Alamo?
