1765 Galleon

[Attila]

Hey guys,

What is the concision on 1765 Galeon wreck in the Bahamas shown on Romans map?

I know years ago some one went after it and I know some people call it the Sandiago el Grande.

But is there any real evidence that the ship existed?

At the end of the 80's Peter Throckmorton asked me an exhaustive historical research on this' "alleged" wreckage. No shadow! A known character defrauded several people with this wreck. He was invited to explain where he got the historical information, but only got excuses without showing absolutely "O ". I worked more than three months without finding a single word or statement.

Bahamian records tell of lots of merchandise being recovered from the beaches. No mention of treasure. I found the bottom of a large ship further to the west on about the same latitude. Empty.

Hi Oceanscience,

Do you happen to have the coordinates of your wreck?

I've come up with documentation stating the location of the wreck from seven different sources
and of course it there is seven different locations. go figure.
