Video Description
One of the most opulent ships of the period, the P&O liner RMS Medina was used as a Royal Yacht to transport King George V, and his family, to India where he was proclamed as Emperor in 1911. It was torpedoed in April 1917 whilst returning from Australia. Believed to be carrying significant quantities of valuables, it was professionally salvaged in the 1980s and the items recovered sold by Sothebys. The Medina is a massive ship wreck; it's nearly 180 metres long, 20 metres wide and stands well over 10 metres off the seabed. During this dive I penetrate deep inside into the First Class dining room. *Highlights* 00:00 Introduction 04:45 Rick has problems with his scooter 12:16 Deep inside the dining room 20:23 Treasure recovered by salvors! 23:12 Best artefact recovered from the Medina 32:08 Railings and portholes 43:37 Recovering Rick's scooter 46:31 Back at the surface in beautiful sunshine! *Kit I Use* Note, some of these are affiliate links so help support making my videos: - Gloves are Ansell Alphatec 87-063 - https://amzn.to/4jDHhX4 - Main torch is an Orcatorch D630 - https://amzn.to/4jlT4tA - Backup torch is an Orcatorch D710 - https://amzn.to/4jhddRk - Drysuit is an O-Three Ri200 - https://www.othree.co.uk/drysuit-range/ri-2-100-drysuit/ - CCR is an AP Diving Inspiration (XPD) - https://www.apdiving.com/ - Backup computer is a Shearwater Perdix v2 - https://amzn.to/42FXZOW - Reels are by Kent Tooling - https://www.divingproducts.co.uk/ - Cameras are Paralenz Vaquita - Video light is NiteScuba NSV60 - NiteScuba NSV60 - https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_onHEKQZ - Phone housing is Divevolk Seatouch 4 Max - https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_omJlNKL - Strobes are Prozhaozhu 3000 Lumen Diving Strobe - https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_oBMRF3X *Like this video?* If you enjoyed this deep wreck diving video then check out my other ones 👉https://www.youtube.com/@DeepWreckDiver 🙏 You also may wish to consider buying me a coffee 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/d33puk ☕☕☕
