If it is the same "Gregg Bemis", who claims to own the rights to the 
"Lusitania", I would take a guess and say he will not be diving it himself 
if it is deeper than a pool. It will be dived by others in his name and I 
would guess he is doing it for a purpose like MONEY, I would suggest that 
you read "Gary Gentiles" books on the "Lusitania" which gives insight to 
"Gregg Bemis" character during the court case. That is if we are talking 
about the same man.
