A great day to do some exploring *updated*

[mad4wrecks]

It was a great day to be on the beach or underwater. Due to some unusual conditions, a section of rocks along the beach were exposed, which aren't normally. Besides myself, I saw a number of other treasure hunters pulling artifacts from them, including Bill. (It was nice to meet you Bill)

Bill was so dedicated to digging up artifacts that he never noticed the pretty girls walking by.

And just offshore, more goodies were waiting to be discovered.

Tom,

Nice goodies.What size is that prop?I need two,22x22 left and right hand props for my boat so it wont be a sea slug anymore.Right now with the oversize 24's it does 11 knots,with the 22x22's it will do 18-25 knots top speed.

Conditions weren't as favorable today but there were still a number of hunters out.

Re: Jupiter Beach-a great day to do some exploring

What the best way to get to Jupiter Beach? Can you give directions?

If I head up the turnpike from Miami, or I-95, what exit should I get off at?

Thanks.

 

[mad4wrecks]

Re: Jupiter Beach-a great day to do some exploring

I-95 to Indiantown Rd. East to A1A. Make a left at the light at Indiantown Rd and A1A. Make a right a Beach Drive (across from the Circle K)

The ballast stone is a great beach find!!!

Re: Jupiter Beach-a great day to do some exploring

Interesting to find ballast rock on the shore like this. Could it be a clue to where the main pile is? It may be closer than we know!

Re: Jupiter Beach-a great day to do some exploring

Question for my Treasure hunting friend's. Can you determine where a ballast stone came from?
example: The America's or Europe. And can they be used to date shipwrecks?
Cheers, Ossy

Re: Jupiter Beach-a great day to do some exploring

Bill showed me a large, green colored ballast rock that he found, but his came from further south down the beach.

Re: Good day to do some snorkeling

Ditto. It is pure torture, and I am 1000 miles away right now. Can't be everywhere at once. Dell, write me back channel, and I'll send you to a couple of sites near you.

Tom, your photos are pure torture. Salt air, clear waters, Shipwrecks , and the lure of Treasure. That's my dream.

My body is being destroyed by gravity and I am aching to enter the world of weightlessness, beauty, and serenity again.

Are there any cheap places in Jupiter where I might stay for a month? Dell

Re: Jupiter Beach-a great day to do some exploring

Beautiful ladies walk by everyday. How often do the waves pull back enough to expose other great TH areas ?
No lady or gent on the beach is worth missing a great TH day !

Re: Jupiter Beach-a great day to do some exploring

I got real excited when I first spotted the white porcelain plate. I thought it might be shipwreck related.

They started producing Buffalo USA china back in 1901. That line of china was made for commercial use; hotels, restaurants, military, government agencies etc.

Turns out the plate was from 1976.

Just eyeballing some stuff while snorkeling.

A ship went down in the area in 1872.
