Love the type you found... I’ve seen another pair just like yours found by another beach hunter after Hurricane Jeanne in 2004. And another one from the HMS Winchester in the Keys were also the same type... so your in good company with your find! So pleased for you...

Some navigational equipment from the mel fisher maritime museum in keywest....these are from the Atocha, and Santa margarita for comparison.

seems that style had been around for close to 100 years prior to 1715 !!

Wow, the story keeps getting better and better, Thanks BB!

Do you know how long this type was in use? I found a reference to an 1800 shipwreck but nothing else.

Awesome find!

I stumbled on this post doing a search for tracking station. I frequent this beach more than any other. Only have found modern targets. Does anyone know if there has been other 1715 related finds @ tracking station?
