Interesting Things Pulled From The Bottom???
 

They just pulled a car out of the river near me that they found training divers. They said it has probably been there for years. I was just wondering what interesting things people have found underwater or seen pulled off the bottom? Cars, boats, bodies, etc.?

Underwater Objects
 

Hopefully my ex wife !

Interesting,any more info on the car? Make,model,year?

2 winters ago, we fished a car out of our river thta had drifted down near the boat ramps. It had been reported stolen about 2 years earlier.

How about a STRETCHED HUMMER LIMO. Pulled out of Lake Texoma just last January.

Somebody stole it and drove it down the boat ramp.

On a canoe trip in southern Missouri several years ago a buddy found a set of dentures!!:D

As as kid I found a fully operational UZI sub machine gun in a canal a few friends and I were snorkling in. I would probably still have it today if not for one of the friends had a big mouth and a mom who worked for the sherrifs dept. Turned out that the gun was used in a crime and dumped

once found an old 10 speed racing bike, it was brown and crappy unfortunatly. another tme found a orange plether reclining chair, tied a rope to it and pulled it back to the beach club. they werent to happy that i brought it back, but it was fun to sit on for a couple hours before they threw it out.

my dad and I once found a safe.. it was empty.. I am still poor..:Whatever:

i know that feeling! found a safe in a friends cottage his aprents bought. spent a whole afternoon and broke multiple tools and it turned out it was empty!

we were out on the island we hang at and a guy next to us pulled in his anchor. On the very point of his anchor was a gold wedding band. Would not have believed it if i wasnt there.

Found a tractor off of our dock.

A couple years ago, after pulling up my anchor just outside of Eggmont Key, I pulled up an aluminum panel probably about 2 feet square or so. The panel was about 0.090 gage and it had two z-channel stringers fastened with 100-degree flush-head rivets running the length of the panel. The most interesting thing was what appeared to be a couple bullet holes in it. Based on the construction and color - lime green on one side and dark olive drab on the other side - it was clearly a piece of an aircraft. I wonder what story it could have told. The thing was nasty with some haevy barnacle growth, so I threw it back. When I got home I realized how dumb that was. I should have kept it. :(

Friend in the marine construction business was putting a new boat ramp in Cleveland found a car with a chinese man still in it. Still had his wallet and everything. Spooky. Made the local news. Guy was in there for 15-16 years.

Found an F150 in a small lake up in Maryland when I was a kid.
Turned out it was stolen and driven in there just for the helluvit.

A prostethic leg floated on shore at Ft. Desoto in St. Pete, FL. No it was not my leg but it made the news!

I found my own anchor( expensive) a year after I lost it. My buddy pulled it up (150' of water) and I said "that's mine!" He said "bull****" But it had my name on it!

One extreme low tide , I looked under the dock behind my boat and there was a complete lower unit there stuck in the mud! Must have been there for years , pulled it up and was junk!!

As a kid , we used to drag the river with a grappeling hook off the back of my 13 whaler for kicks. Found some good antique bottles and a couple anchors. Actually made extra cash finding mooring anchors when their chains would break.

I was cruising up Lake George a couple of years ago and almost hit a piece of metal sticking out of the water. I turned around to see what it was, when I got up close to it I relized it was the tip of the mast of a 30' sailboat. The water is crystal clear in LG and I could see the boat directly below me.

..pulled up a box anchor in one of the coves in Havasu. What sucks, I had just bought one several weeks before.:cool-smiley-027:

They pulled a banker who was chained to a chair out of Grand Lake below sailboat bridge back in the late 80's early 90's..................gotta watch those E-Dockers:eek:

in chicago's lake michigan at the end of ''navy pier''they have found several cars from the 20's-30's that had people in them ,they were mob guys that got offed and their cars and them were put over the end of the pier
