I guess 18 to 20 feet would fall into the realm of shallow water.

Here are a few pictures of the finds. The first picture is of some items that I found back at the end of last year (Dec 2009). Includes items like broken bottle necks, piece of glass from round window (very heavy), and a piece of white ceramic. The second picture is of a silver spoon found in the same debris field as the other "garbage" aka treasure to some.

The first video shows the debris field and the little guy that guards it. This area is around 35 feet down.

The second video is of another ship wreck that is close to the coast line. Sorry that the second video moves a lot, but when you have surge and current all at the same time, it makes it a little dificult to film. Not shown in the video is the gold chain (modern) that my friend found (lucky ba%#@#) :D.

All the ship wrecks in the area are from the mid to late 1800s. They were coal, steam driven.

Thanks. I guess it's best to keep them short. Nobody seems to like my long videos :'(

Yeah there are a few nasty jagged pieces of steel down there. I would hate to be impaled due to the surge. It would kind of really "mess" up ones day.
