17th-century merchant ship discovered in the Baltic

[Seadog72]

Didn’t know wether to post this here or ‘Treasure in the News’ forum. Either way, it’s a really cool story!

“It was to our great surprise when descending on a wreck at 85 meters [279 feet] depth, expecting to see an early WW1 minesweeper or a schooner sunk during WW2, we realized that we are looking at an almost completely preserved Dutch Fluit ship!” Badewanne explained, in a statement. “She rests on even keel on the seabed, with most of her rigging scattered around her.”
