At the outbreak of the war no Admiralty salvage organization existed, but the need of such a department became pressing, and early in 1816 the Lords of the Adinirnity called in Captain F. W. Young as Naval Salvage Adviser to form such a section and to take charge of it Captain Young, who, had been for 30 years engaged in salvage work in the interests of underwriters, being chief surveyor to the Liverpool Salvage "Association, was afterwards
