I'm not a shipwreck hunter although I would love to be one.

I noticed lately some really great stuff coming out of Florida from the 1715 fleet. Seems like much more then past years. What is the reason? Were there storms that striped sand off the beaches? Does it have something to do with the Fisher's selling of salverage rights? Better research coming to light? Is it just luck that all these great finds are happening at once?

Just curious and would love to hear your opinions...

Thanks

If you spend enough time underwater looking, and look where no one else has looked, your success looks pretty good.

No luck involved. Well, maybe a little.

But mostly blood, sweat and tears.

Sub-leasers are being guided a little more than before. Bonnie gave us a clue in his post...

Took it into the lab Monday. Could hardly tell Bill Moore on the phone what I had found: his work with the database and research was what put me in the right area.
