WILLEMSTAD - Navy divers from the Defense Dive Group (DDG) are currently active in the Caribbean.

One of the areas the divers have been working on is the Spanish Water in Curaçao where together with the Curaçao Ports Authority (CPA), Towing Company Curaçao (KvK) and Sea Services and under the guidance of the Harbour Master they are removing the sunken vessel Bounty.
