Primary Interest:
Shipwrecks
The wreck is about 8 miles north from the Ft.Pierce inlet it was a Duth vessel captured by the Spaniards and part of the 1715 Tierra Firme fleet commanded by Antonio Echevez. Thats why the spaniards named it "La Holandesa" which meant the Duth ship...

You can find some information in "Shipwrecks near Wabasso Beach" by Bob Weller

I hope this helps,
