I have mixed opinions about raising a sunken warship(or any ship) I feel that when sailors where taken by the sea on a warship it becomes there grave and raising it seems feels like disrespecting that.In the case of the Hunley I suppose it is a little different seeing as the CSN raised her several times themselves after men had died inside and also the fact of the Hunleys one of a kind historical value.I feel the same way about the USS Monitor which they raised part of.
