Peter W. Gautier of the US Coast Guard.
The presentation on Monday also reportedly revealed the submersible’s final message – just six seconds before it lost contact with the surface.“Dropped two wts,” the Titan’s text to its mother ship read, referring to weights the submersible could shed in hopes of returning to the surface, according toSeconds later, the Titan was “pinged” for the last time, and the mother ship lost track of the vessel.
Nargeolet’s family alleged the crew experienced “terror” before the disaster and accused the sub’s operator of gross negligence.“The crew may well have heard the carbon fiber’s crackling noise grow more intense as the weight of the water pressed on Titan’s hull,” the legal document read. “By experts’ reckoning, they would have continued to descend, in full knowledge of the vessel’s irreversible failures, experiencing mental anguish prior to the Titan ultimately imploding.

When asked about whether he believed the U.S. Coast Guard lied, he replied: “I don’t think they lied.”“I think they went by a procedure that was torturous for the family, unnecessarily torturous for the family,” he added. The Titan sub lost connection with its host ship merely hours after it began its descent on June 18, 2023.
