On October 11, 1982, Henry VIII's flagship was salvaged and landed
On this day, 43 years ago, on October 11, 1982 (August 25, 1982 in the lunar calendar), the flagship of Henry VIII was salvaged ashore. The huge hull of the "Maria-Rose" finally surfaced, bringing a successful conclusion to the multi-year salvage work. On October 11, 1982, the flagship of the Henry VIII era, the "Maria-Rose", was salvaged from the seabed in southern Hampshire, England. The Maria-Rose, the flagship of the 16th century British King Henry VIII, was carrying 91 cannons and 700 people, but unfortunately sank during the War between Britain and France in 1545. After 437 years, it finally came to light again. The operation was the result of 17 years of studying the wreck and the cumulative number of dives reached "2500 and cost US$7 million." When the Maria-Rose was salvaged in the stormy Port of Portsmouth, everyone, including Prince Charles and hundreds of celebrities, was shocked-the Maria-Rose still retained most of its original oak skeleton, and the 17000 crafts carried on the ship were invaluable to historians to re-represent the Tudor Dynasty.
