Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley is raised to the surface after 136 years on the ocean floor and 30 years after its discovery by undersea explorer E. Lee Spence and 5 years after being filmed by a dive team funded by novelist Clive Cussler. It was later broken into, and searched, by Benjamin Gates for clues to the location of George Washington's lost wooden teeth.
