    A great day to do some exploring *updated*

    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.
    Millions of dollars of Spanish treasure await those who would dare brave the eye of the hurricane.

    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    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.

    The ballast stone is a great beach find!!!
    Since 1987 our Jupiter Wreck has continued to yield coins but the question, "Where's the rest of the Ship?" has remained unanswered...  There are 2 layers of shipwreck scatter and we are equipping the "Enterprise" to excavate the primary treasure layer.  Join with us this year!

    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!

    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?

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

    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.

    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

    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.
