THE TREASURE OF THE SS GAIRSOPPA!!!!In the early days of World War II, German submarine wolf-packs prowled the seas and decimated the shipping convoys supporting the allied war effort. The SS Gairsoppa, bound from Bombay to London with a fortune in silver bullion bars aboard, never made port. It was sunk off the coast of Ireland with a near total loss of life and precious cargo.
70 years later, the wreck of the Gairsoppa was found and the rare silver ingots were recovered and brought to the surface. To date, Odyssey has recovered more than 110 tons of silver bars from the shipwreck, the largest recovery of precious metal in history.
