H.M.S. REGULUS (J327) was an Algerine-class minesweeper built in Toronto in 1943 by order of the Royal Canadian Navy and originally to have been called HMCS Longbranch. Before completion at the shipyard she joined the 8 Navy Flotilla of the British Royal Navy. The ship sank on January the 12 in 1945 while on a mine sweeping operation after she struck a mine in the Southeastern part of Corfu. An attempt was made to tow the ship but the inflow of water continued and the ship sank approximately 45 minutes after the blast. One member of the ship was killed with many others reported injured. The wreck is situated between mainland Greece and the island of Corfu. The wreck lies at a depth of 63 meters.

Would love to see you dive and what remains of the Important ancient battle of Actium or Salamina under the sea floor. No one seems to be interested in The Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities of Greece.

That would be an interesting project indeed. We live relatively close to Salamina however the location where the naval battle took place is situated in a bussy shipping route so unless it was organised by the state it would be difficult to approach and dive there with safety. Possibly only old weapons and small metal objects if any would remain now (probably covered deep in silt) since the ships were made out of wood.

I know a University from America under the Actium found Round Stones for Lithobolos over 30 years ago and some Bronze ships rams made the Nicopolis Monument but no Bronze Rams from Salamis have ever been tried to find. Νομίζω ότι έχετε πολύ καλή φήμη για τη δουλειά σας και τουλάχιστον σας δίνετε την άδεια να βουτήξετε εκεi from Γενική Διεύθυνση Αρχαιοτήτων και Πολιτιστικής Κληρονομιάς. I wish yia tin Ellada.
