From Patti Callahan’s book, Surviving Savannah......
Author’s Notes
A few weeks after the start of my research, I was searching for some of the ship’s dimensions and facts when I stumbled on a piece of startling news—the Endurance Exploration Group along with their salvage partners Blue Waters Ventures and Marex announced they’d found the steamship Pulaski thirty miles off the coast of Wilmington, North Carolina, a hundred feet deep. I hadn’t known anyone was looking for the doomed ship. When I read the news, the powerful chill of story-excitement ran up my spine.
This kind of synchronicity sometimes happens, and each time it does I am led again to the mystical knowing that we are all connected, that stories are our lifeline, and that they want to be told.
I immediately contacted Micah Eldred, the CEO and founder of Endurance Exploration Group, Inc., and from that moment he helped me tell the story in innumerable ways: he sent me the divers’ photos of the artifacts retrieved from a hundred feet below. He answered questions about treasure hunting, diving and this ship’s discovery. For almost two hundred years the keys, plates, silver flatware, pocket watches, jewelry, baby rattles and so much more have rested at the bottom of the sea as hidden secrets and stories of the Pulaski tragedy. Mr. Eldred partnered with Blue Water Ventures and it’s CEO, Keith Webb, known for their shallow-water salvage expertise, to perform physical salvage operations using its vessel, Blue Water Rose, and its divers. The other partner, Marex, originally founded by Herbert Humphreys and now run by Tim Hudson, offers the important IP work that must be done to bring us these fascinating artifacts.
