Mystery of Lusitania may finally be solved
Gregg Bemis, 83, who has owned the wreck since 1968, oversaw operations off the south coast on Saturday as divers began cutting through the hull of the wreck.
He is funding the multi-million dollar expedition, based on the Irish Lights vessel, the Granuaile, which is anchored some 90 metres over the wreck site about 25 nautical miles off the Old Head of Kinsale.
