I read somewhere that this is the way you
can retrieve outboard motors that have fallen off the transom.

Whited;

Shall we start our own salvage company? Maybe we can retreive some WW 2 torpedos at the bottom of Halifax Harbour.

Don't laugh. There is still unexploded ordinance at the bottom, a lot from that big magazine explosion in 1945.

The Bedford Institute of Oceangraphy is
putting on a show this month using the latest sonar results.
They will show us what the basin would look like if the water was removed.

I remember going over some charts of Halifax Harbour and seeing cautions for unexploded torpedoes. My grandfather was also a survivor of the Halifax Explosion and I often wonder how much is down there.

I've also heard that there's a railway engine at the bottom of the Strait of Canso. Apparently it slipped off the "Scotia" while crossing from Mulgrave to Port Hawkesbury.
