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?

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!

Steve, you are correct.....Jupiter Beach was just getting good. Now the old stuff is getting buried once again.

First 2 pics are of some finds earlier this month.

3rd pic is of the bulldozers on the beach today.

Last few pics I took tonight....

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....

The answer is simple.... It is too good of an idea!

I need to hire the right Bagman, whoops I mean lobbyist......

That s how our government works

I may be out there with a coin / lemonade stand tomorrow if the weather
gets better! We have some great last minute unique Christmas trinkets
for sale....

A couple of folks came but and took me up on my offer....
Thank you and Merry Christmas...
to all you others I wish the same and call if you want a coin or two from our wreck...
