I was not necessarily thinking of body recovery, but there is a viewpoint that such sunken ships should be left where they are to serve as the final resting place of the crew.

There is also a viewpoint that if such a ship is recoverable, there might be advantages of recovering it.

Personally, I am torn between these viewpoints. But I don't have any relatives who died at sea and are resting on the bottom of the sea.

That's why I asked the question. I would be interested in how people who do have relatives like this feel about recovery.
