Apparently having a tether is not a bad option. So what’s the reason they didn’t go for it?

Possibly because they were closing in a wreck and a tether can get snagged

And I guess they were doing very close flyby, visibility down there is real bad.

I could imagine the plan to go near or inside a sunken ship has to do with this?
