The station wagon thought to belong to Ken and Barbara Martin was found last fall by Archer Mayo , a diver who had been looking for it for seven years .

Mayo pinpointed the likely location and dove several times before finding the car upside-down about 50 feet ( 15 meters ) deep, covered in mud, salmon guts, silt and mussel shells.

The Martins took their daughters Barbara , 14 , Virginia , 13 , and Sue, 11 , on a ride to collect Christmas greenery.
