Learn about the submarine from the Civil War, track recovery efforts, and support this project to solve the mystery of the sinking of the H. L. Hunley in 1864. Site includes webcams, quicktime views and oceaneering animations.

The Hunley Commission was created by the State of South Carolina to acquire, recover, and preserve the H.L. Hunley submarine for public display. The Hunley Commission has entered into a Programmatic Agreement with the U.S. Naval Historical Center, the primary trustee of the H.L. Hunley for the federal government, to conserve and ultimately display the H.L. Hunley submarine as well as bury the remains of the brave crew.

Friends of the Hunley is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping the H.L. Hunley complete her historic journey home. The goals of the Friends of the Hunley are: to recover the remains of the brave men who gave their lives and honor them with the proper burial that they earned; to solve the mystery of that first ever submarine attack in 1864; and to conserve one of the greatest, most sought-after artifacts in the history of naval warfare.
