Excerpt from the Batemans Bay Post/Moruya Examiner today:
“If you catch the underwater film Islands in the Sea, be prepared for emotions to surface.
The footage of our very own Clyde River and Batemans Bay is unexpectedly moving.
The world is not short of fabulous nature movies, but don’t switch off.
Not from this film. Not if you live in or love this place.
There is something deeply touching about seeing your own watery “backyard” in all its shy, subtlety. ”

A Fugro Echo Surveyor 5 AUV was used with a multi-beam echosounder to locate the vessel, followed up with AUV video and drop camera operations.
The sub went missing in September 1914 with 35 crew members on board.
