In the old days,divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk,because they hoped to find gold and jewels.Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships,but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves,or parts of them.The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years,it may be worth a great deal.
