    Storyline

    Edit
    Professional salvage divers Larry and Drake (later replaced by Mike) made their livings braving the dangers of the deep recovering sunken wrecks off the Southern California coast. Frequently, these assignments brought them into conflict with more human dangers from people who wanted to reach the wrecks first, or who had a vested interest in seeing that what had been sent to the bottom stayed there. Midway through the program's run, the divers moved their shop to Malibu, and name of the show became "Malibu Run". —Jean-Marc Rocher <rocher@fiberbit.net>

    Whatever happened to Keith Larsen>
    I know this is a very late response but I was watching KEITH LARSEN in a movie recently and I wondered what happened to him. I remember occasionally watching the ACQUANAUTS but I was a big fan of HONG KONG.

    I would love to get that on DVD-R sometime. Just wanted you to know I thought you post was excellent, informative and entertaining. RE: HONG KONG "Hong Kong" was a great TV series as I recall. I suppose I should go to the "Hong Kong" site for a comment. However, I remember watching that quite vividly. "Acquanauts" changed titles mid-season. So did "Storefront Lawyers" to "Men at Law"

    Thanks
