    Jupiter Inlet

    Could this be the remains of an old wall as seen on Google Earth, located about 3/4 mile South of Jupiter inlet, and 4/10 mile from shore? I'm posting a negative for easier viewing. humble

    Re: Jupiter Inlet

    Looks a little too straight for an ancient wall to me. May just be an effect from Google Earth, like the edge of that particular graphic image.

    Re: Jupiter Inlet

    I'm familiar with the horizontal frame lines on Google Earth. There is one shown in White just above the the Place Marker.

    The vertical line is different and I don't see any assosciation to the mapping process. I haven't seen any evidence that civilizations of at least the past 2000 years were incapable of building straight walls. If it is a man made anomaly my guess
    would be during the 1300's to 1500's. Probably Indians. humble

    I seriously doubt this is something built by native americans, if it's really anything at all. It could be something as simple as a easement cleared off for a land survey.

    This is under the ocean, nearly 1/2 mile from shore. Possibly under 20-30 feet of water. humble

    Probably the plumbing for dredging sand onto the beach...

    There is at least one very old communications cable that runs from Jupiter to Nassau I believe. I have run across it several times while diving. However, it is damaged, broken in some places and is definitely not in a straight line anymore.

    There may be additional cables.

    Re: Jupiter Inlet

    I don't know a reason a cable, or dredge pipe would have been laid going East, and then bend and go North a half mile off shore?

    It may, or may not, be anything at all, but if only for curiosity I would think it would bear investigating? humble

    Re: Jupiter Inlet

    The area out of Jupiter Inlet is very sandy, and shallow, and it is usually very clear, especially on a rising tide. Swimming pool clear often. If anything at all was out there like that, it would have been seen long ago. That is a picture overlay from sat pics. You can get some weird reflections and stuff from them too.

    I live for this!.....

    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!
