In March 2022, the Felicity Ace caught fire and sank near the Azores some 25 NM outside of the limits of Portugal'EEZ, in an area with a depth of about 9,842 feet according the Portuguses Navy, dragging thousands of luxury cars to the bottom of the sea.
On board were some of the world's most coveted brands: Porsche, Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini... a veritable fortune swallowed up by the sea.
Since then, the wreck has become one of the most fascinating modern shipwrecks in the Atlantic, captivating the imagination with its combination of wealth, tragedy, and mystery.
