Treasure Coast writer - 1715 Fleet - Cape Canaveral

[grossmusic]

New member. Found this site via the Queen's Dowry discussion about the 1715 Fleet while doing research for a story about the Fleet for the 300th anniversary coming up.

Been all over the world researching and writing about Mary Read, other 18th-c. pirates and basically the entire Golden Age of Piracy, which of course gets its name from the 1715 Fleet.

I live in Orlando, but my mom is in Cape Canaveral, so I get out on the coast quite often.

Almost signed a sub-contract to dive the Cabin Wreck, but decided I'm too much of a landlubber for that kind of a commitment. Maybe I'll tag along sometime with those of you who adventure out a lot.

Thanx, all. I received zero notifications of your posts. Obviously I'm doing something wrong because my settings are to receive an email for each post. Oh well.

Glad I came back to check!

Don't worry, cudamark - I do own a (cheap) metal detector. I hope to get out there more to be a more "legit" member.

Good research is just as important as swinging the loop!
