Episode Details

After 300 years underwater, the long-lost 17th-century ship The Blessing of Burntisland may have been found—just one mile from its sinking site in the Firth of Forth. Equipped with cutting-edge tech and a key timber fragment, researchers believe they’ve located the wreck of the royal baggage ferry that carried priceless treasure for King Charles I’s coronation tour. Only two of its 35 crew survived. Now, with diving restrictions lifted and the UK government’s Receiver of Wreck team on board, the Burntisland Heritage group is poised to lead recovery and preservation efforts—including a potential new museum to honor this maritime mystery. The future hinges on whether they can actually bring the ship—and its fortune—back to the surface.
