The DEEP SEA has more history in it than all the museums of the world-combined.

What drives me is exploration with a purpose, more the classic Royal Geographical Society genre.

I am really dedicated to understanding the planet/creature on which we live and know that means I must go beneath the sea to see 72 percent of what is going on.

It is a quiet and peaceful place - and a fitting place for the remains of this greatest of sea tragedies to rest.

I learned how to order my thoughts, and most important, learned how to develop a plan. I discovered the power of a plan. If you can plan it out, and it seems logical to you, you can do it. And that was the secret to success.

I mean, there is amazing amount of oil and gas and other resources out beneath the sea. It's staggering.

I am an underwater explorer, not a treasure hunter.
