Prohibition Rumrunner Lizzie D in a bottle

Thought it would be neat to build a replica of the prohibition rumrunner Lizzie D and put it inside a bottle recovered from the wreck.

Some people have way too much time on their hands.Nice work though.You have more patience then me working on that tiny stuff.After about an hour of that i would be setting that bottle up and shooting it with my glock.

Very cool and well executed idea.

you must be from my neck of the woods. I dove that wreck many times, not like any wrecks in Florida. You still can find some bottles and dive equipment dropped from check out divers along with conga ells and the few lobsters. Nice job .

I didnt realize who you were, I watched your show , was it wreck valley. i miss it , is it still on anywhere?

[wreckvalle]

Unfortunetely the TV show is not on the air anymore. It was a lot of fun for eight years. I do still run the charter boat Wreck Valley. We run the Lizzie plus many other NY and NJ shipwrecks. Love to have you aboard if you are ever back in NY.
