In 2007, the Waitt Institute for Discovery partnered with Ships of Discovery and the Turks and Caicos National Museum for this exploratory survey of the Endymion Rock area. Leading the expedition as Principal Investigator was Dr. Donald H. Keith, a nautical archaeologist and trustee of the Turks and Caicos National Museum. The two-week expedition documented the current state of the H.M.S Endymion, searched the site for other shipwrecks, and discovered the identity of the Endymions Companion Wreck.
