Hello Bruce Johnson,

 

A Tigress-class cost is MCr362,721 so that would give the recovery team MCr36,272.1 to split. To ensure they make the salvage I'll keep my characters as far away as possible.

And you get a finders/salvage fee for your trouble, so yeah it’s still worth it. 10% of the cost of a Tigress?
