This is the fourth major expedition undertaken by the newly formed Triton Oceanic Corporation. The objective is to find and document the wreck of the Ijn Kongo, a 36,000-ton battleship sunk off Formosa during the second world war…
Weighing in at 36,000 Tonnes, you may think finding this is easy but I can tell you, even with our sophisticated equipment comprising sidescan sonar and Caesium magnetometers, its not!!
