I have read in several threads that individuals have location of unclaimed unnamed wreck sites in Florida. We are currently looking for targets to survey. We have a 80' recovery vessel with 4' diameter mail boxes with all commercial diving equipment. In addition, a survey boat with cesium mags and side scan sonar. We are from Texas and are main problem is creditable information of wrecks. We had an agreement to start surveying an area in April but decided the person and the information was not worth it. Doing the surveying it not expensive but time is short. We are will to put up all equipment and expenses. We are not a salvage company just a group of friend that enjoys the hunt and hopefully a lot of recovery. Any person that brings us information, all terms of agreement will be put in a contract.. Everything will be done above board following all state and federal regulation. Ideally, we would like to be beyond the three mile limit, I'm looking for people with good info and a please be prepared to explain why you think your site is what it is. Please do not try to hard sell me on something you heard about in a bar. I'm tired of digging up old stove and trash. We will be at the picnic on the 18th in Wabasso and hope to meet some of you with some promising opportunities. From there we will start surveying and hope to be diving first of May. Email me with info [email protected] and add a phone number. I prefer to talk on the phone. Thanks

If you are looking for targets in Florida, the main issue is the state. Only a few companies working there. I'd say try to contact them, not some anonymous person on TNet. Call Global Marine and Seafarer Exploration. At least get your name in front of them, so if in the future they have a need for another boat they know who you are. Both have Tampa numbers. Both work east side of state. cape Canaveral area and Melbourne Beach area, respectively. And both are looking to expand in the future. Worth your time to call, if you are truly wanting to do this above board. Good luck to you. :-)

That boat looks a lot like the Rio Bravo LSM. Is that the same boat? TX Diver, what kind of boat is it?

I don't think there are new owners, the Rio Bravo was always based out of Texas under Marine Salvage Services and Billy Kennon. It still was as of last year, so I'm guessing Texas Diver is either Billy himself or one of his crew. For those who don't know, Billy was one of the finders of 1554 Fleet off Padre Island, he is an old pro in the biz and knows the game well. I learned a ton working for him in his ship yard in Port Isabel, TX many years ago. The Bravo was stationed at Port Canaveral last I saw her about 3 months back.

Clark,

Could your technology find a 200 ft long steel shipwreck in 70 ft of warm clear tropical water resting on a 4 mile square seamount. With deep water all around??
