Re: They are filling in Jupiter Inlet Beach today.
Not sure exactly what to make of this posting.
Could we have a little more information? I checked
the Palm Beach Post, but couldn't find anything
on this topic. Also, will it hinder or interfere with the
(2) companies that are working the wreck?
Re: They are filling in Jupiter Inlet Beach today.
Dawg, this happens every year at the inlet, that is why there are no significant finds. The sand is being pumped over the original wreck site all the time but the bulk of the ship was pulled further out. Cannons fall quickly and coins are like butterflies. Only a friend of mine knows where she lies. This is what I do when dredging is happening at the Jupiter inlet. (sorry for the giant photo)

I tried to do close up of the bulldozers on the beach, but it wouldnt let me post without reducing photo. They will be filling for about 50 feet seaward. Or more. And it was just getting nice!

Re: They are filling in Jupiter Inlet Beach today.
FROM THE INSIDE SAND TRAP.....
BUT KEEP LOOKING..... A COUPLE OF FIREMEN FOUND
A SWIVEL GUN NEAR IT OVER TEN YEARS AGO!
THEY CUT IT INTO THREE PIECES WITH A CUT OFF SAW
HOPING TO FIND TREASURE INSIDE..... WHOOPS
ALL THEY FOUND AFTER DESTROYING A SWEET SWIVEL GUN WAS
ITS LAST LOAD.... AND IT WAS NOT BOOTY!
tHE ONLY REASON i FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS WAS I HAD
PURCHASED A FIRETRUCK A WHILE AGO.... AND THEY
SAW IT IN MY YARD SO THEY FIGURED
I MUST NOT BE ALL BAD.....
NOW THE FIRETRUCK IS GONE BUT THE CANON
CUT IN THREE PIECES IS THERE....
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!

The tall guy is Terry Weech.
Terry is a good friend of ours and successful treasure finder
The guy looking like he has a barrel under his coat is me!
If the weather clears tomorrow I might just go down to the beach
and open up a lemonade / treasure coin stand
