Do Porsches float ?

I don’t think so. Too bad.

Might be the most expensive fish habitat anyone will ever see.

I've rescued a few water damaged cars in my day, more than a few. Parts off these cars won't be worth money for a long time. If they ever dig them out of the ocean, it will be too late, yet I was thinking about parts alone and drooling at the mouth!

It won't be like Spanish gold coins unfortunately...

Someday they'll be talking about Porsche sea glass washing up on the shores.

It would be nice to think the desirable cars would float to the surface, but they're tied to the decks. My understanding is that salvage rules applied as soon as the crew abandoned the ship

Large transport ships burn on the average of 6 per year. Usually it's container ships. Lots of goodies at the bottom of the ocean!
