This is an important site for both US and UK. The operations of HMS Rose of the coast of America caused the order to build the USN and HMS Constitution was one of these vessels - built to easily deal with frigates but be able to sail away from anything big enough to give them a problem. I have an interest because my family built HMS Rose at their shipyard on the river near Hull.
I am afraid the HMS Rose had nothing to do with the building of the "HMS" Constitution. The Rose was a much smaller ship and sank about 20 years before USS Constitution and her sister ships were constructed. The Constitution was armed with thirty-two 24 pounder cannons while the Rose apparently had twenty 9 pounders (although the video says 6 pound shot was found). The American ships were built to overwhelm the average British frigate of the time which carried guns firing 18 pound shot.
@@madthomm9648 Looks like my family history info was massaged by a family member in Australia in 1942 concerned that his UK relatives needed a more important past.
HMS Rose was built at Kingston-upon-Hull, East Yorkshire, England. The modern replica of HMS Rose was procured by the film company and used as HMS Surprise in the film "Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World" (2003) starring Russell Crowe.
The Yanks better give us that stuff back or we should take immediate military action against the US and have a re-run of the civil war ( it wasn’t a war of independence ) 😂🥊

Thank you America for protecting one of our old wrecks.
As an American we have a storied and linked history. Seeing it done any other way would be inappropriate. Rule Brittannia
Great report. Thank you!
That was amazing to see the rope wads and cannon balls come out like that.
Good to see thank you.
Super-interesting thank you FN!
Fascinating story 👍

the next future gen 500 hundred years from now will only find more plastic trash n waste from this gen where we are right now...
Will they come back to the Uk 🇬🇧
The discovery is far more significant to US history than it is to the UK. For that reason I think it should stay in the US.
Plenty of them in the sea around the UK if we need any !

Darn, I wish I was able to work on that site, digging roman ditches is a back breaker and colonial maritime archaeology is very interesting 😅
By law doesnt that wreck belong to the uk unless they give up claim?
It’s only a cannon I wouldn’t worry
It may have to do with whose waters it lies in…
Give them back. They're ours!

We built a mill in Hampshire made from the timbers of USS Chesapeake. So, its not all one way.
That was a legitimate war prize not a underwater recovery
