Oregon Files Series

Adventure series written by Clive Cussler, The Oregon Files is a spin-off of the Dirk Pitt Series. It focuses on Juan Cabrillo and his crew of mercenaries with a conscience.

More precisely, Cabrillo is the chairman of the Corporation, a special US Government-sponsored group that operates out of a ship called the Oregon. It is described as a marvel of scientific research equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry. But you never guessed it, because the ship is disguised as a heap of junk.
