One canon with a wooden charrette was discovered by the Underwager Exploration Society of Israel during the 1969s, and later retrieved by a citizen diver, Hahotrim Kibbutz member, and handled to the Underwager Exploration Society of Israel, and is currently on display at the National Maritime Museum, Haifa. Another cannon was salvaged by fishermen and is in private hands in Ein HaYam in Haifa. The third cannon was discovered by Ofek Galili and retrieved by the IAA, currently at Bet Shemesh IAA storage. The assemblage was published by Ridella et al.
