Join us as we sit down and talk shop with Randy "Ham" Barnhouse.  Barnhouse graduated in Flat River, MO. in 1972 and went on to become a military police seargent from 1974 to 77.  Randy was a diver that worked on the Atocha.  He was a salvage diver from 1985 to 1989.  He also worked the 1715 fleet as well in 93, 05, and 2011.  From 2013 to present he has been investigating and digging at the Mark Twain boy hood home in MO looking for artifacts directly linked to Twain and his family in MO.

 

So join us and hear about some orf Randy's many experiences and adventures in the hobby of treasure hunting and salvage and recovery as he discusses a day in the life of a diver during the hay day of the main pile,...The procedures, the work, the frustrations, the victories, the laughs, and yes...the tears too.  What it's really like from hitting the deck in the morning to hitting the sack at night.

 

Randy is quoted as saying "So much is involved besides putting on your tanks and scooping up treasure.  I will not feel like a glory hog, we do stand on the shoulders of giants before us.".
