Recoveries at sea, within UK territorial waters, or up to the high tide water mark, have to be reported to the Receiver of Wreck within 28 days.
The Receiver of Wreck, has one year to decide what happens to items.
"What we do is we negotiate between the owner and the finder for potentially a salvage fee," he said.
"About 85% of finders get to keep the items, but sometimes the items have extreme historical value and we try to find homes for them in museums."
