Due to my interest in everything sea related, I was looking forward to reading this book. What a fascinating topic! And it is! What Mearns did and does is simply astonishing. adly, his book isn't. Not because of the stories he shares with us - those are the very heart of this book. But because it's written in a rather boring way. Not everyone is ment to be a writer, Mearns talents lie elsewhere, not in writing...

This book was honestly one of the most entertaining memoirs I‘ve read. Every chance I got outside of study and work I would be enthralled with tales of finding long lost wrecks on the bottom of the deepest oceans. It was a fascinating read. David Mearns has lead a truely spectacular life.
