Join the "Sea Hunters' as they travel to the Southern reaches of the planet and dive wrecks from Britain's great age of Maritime supremacy. Following the discovery of the Magellan Straits in October of 1520, by Hernando De Magallanes (Ferdinand Magellan), from the 16th to the 18th century a series of daring expeditions took place. But it was the British who would eventually dominate the world's seas and come to build one of the largest naval and merchant fleets in the world. They were Rulers of the Seas, and Chile became a stopping point for the Royal Navy as it traversed the globe and showed its 'flag' to its various colonies and protectorates. The treacherous waters would claim their victims, including those of the Royal Navy and the merchant fleet. But not all of these victims were due to the infamous waters of southern Chile, one Royal Naval vessel was lost due to a mysterious explosion. Rumors of Fenian explosive devices and plots surround the incide...a possible attempt by Irish revolutionaries to wound the Empire.
