Having watched Oak island, after a couple of episodes I understood this was going in the same direction: every object found MUST be U-Boot/War related, and the "hurricane season" coming to end the research when apparently the best find has been made.
I will not be surprised if the first episode of the next season will show a big chunk of steel and nothing more.
You have an hurricane arriving, just a 2-3 days left, and you emerge to bring every single find back each time? Aaaa...that was the worst part.
I'm getting sick of these series... there's nothing to learn, as far as I know it's all fictional, nothing more.

As usual these real time expeditions is a waste of time. So far nothing of any consequence has been found and the dialog assumptions are strictly played for the camera. As typical of the History Channel as with The Curse of Oak Island NOTHING IS EVER FOUND. History Channel!!!! Why do you continue to offer there boring and unfruitful shows? Are they cheap to produce?
I never did watch the Curse of Oak Island because I knew what to expect but I really did hope the Lost U Boats would restore my faith in the History Channel. MOVE ON!!!! Offer shows that have some sense of satisfaction as in a learning experience. Now that would be worth watching.

This is a mildly interesting story, and I can see the plausibility of their theories, however, there is a very real flaw in their approach that makes it less credible in my eyes. Repeatedly, they are finding and casually handling, what they believe to be munitions from WWII. In reality, this would be an incredibly DANGEROUS thing for them to do!
Any such unexploded ordinance, submerged for 70-plus years, would be highly unstable and unpredictable. It might be totally inert and safe to handle... it might explode in your hand with the slightest jar! You simply can't know, which is one of many reasons why diving the wreck sites of military ships is often controlled or discouraged.
That they repeatedly do so, without any comment on the potential hazard, leads me to wonder if they are simply uninformed, reckless, or well aware that what they are handling is not real?

These guys are pretty clueless when it comes to salvage diving.
No retrieval/find bags on their dives? No system for floating finds for others to pick up? Instead - find a single item and rush to the surface and back to the boat. How many hours did they waste diving down their guide lines only to rush back with a single item? Total Amateur Hour.
Artificial deadline. These guys could be diving nearly year round outside hurricane season. So, of course, they don't start diving until just before hurricane season...
No sidescan sonar to zero in on targets? Total low budget operation.
Oh, and by all means, pull unknown, unexploded ordinance out from reef systems. That's a career limiting move. All it takes is one unstable shell and you get instant chum.

Does anyone actually believe this rubbish, totally scripted and fake. Just another version of the usual twaddle history channel pumps out but tbis time under the water, watch this space and mark my words they will find just enough planted artifacts to justify future seasons, whoever directed this series seriously needs sacked. Oh we found a plate with a swastika on it, oh we just happen to find a knife handle with a swastika on it amongst 1000 nails, and oh we found a towing eye that some expert says was used to tow a trailer possibly carrying loot, lol come on pull the other one its got bells on it.
