ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
 
     On April 5, 1996, Seahawk Deep Ocean Technology, Inc. (the "Company")
sold its 210 foot recovery vessel known as the Seahawk Retriever to S & H
Diving L.L.C., a non-affiliated Louisiana-based, wholly-owned subsidiary of
American Oilfield Divers, Inc. for a total purchase price of $1,450,000, less 
a credit for accrued charter hire of $11,250.  Concurrently the Company 
settled and paid its outstanding mortgage on the vessel.  The amount of the 
mortgage was $1,168,000 and the mortgagor agreed to accept $900,000 as full 
payment.  The Company also paid a 5.5% commission in connection with the sale.
 
     In the event the Company needs a recovery vessel for future shipwreck
recovery projects, management believes that suitable vessels can be
chartered on a day rate basis, and such vessels may be chartered from
American Oilfield Divers.
