He's going to find a treasure chest soon lol

Eeyowza! Out of clumps. Geez. I wonder if those clumps don,t roll about and migrate easier than coins themselves? Regardless, Congrats on another great score.

2,100 miles away from here your finding evidence of east west traffic.(?)While I,m trying not to touch the screen. Happy hunting to you,be safe.

Despite the grid we searched, all the items were found in a 'hollow' in the seabed - I assume all the stuff from the surrounding area eventually ending up in what is basically a sump pit on the ocean floor?

Hey BVI!! CONGRATS AGAIN!! You are very fortunate to have great sites for your finds!! Would like to see them again once you have the opportunity to clean them up!! GOOD LUCK and GOOD HUNTING!! VERDE!!

Excellent finds. Congratulations. I didn't think about the hookah giving away your locations. Scuba is more stealthy and when you find a good spot, you don't want to advertise it.

You have to give us a warning before you haul up the chest of gold coins, it may take a little time to get your name printed on the banner...just say' n. I just want to make sure I'm "sitting" when you post the pics of that, ok?

these items were the result of over four hours scuba (2 men x 2hrs each) in an area approx. 100 sq ft - I don't expect to find much more there, which is a shame, but i'll give it a go

Dude Dude Dude. You the pirate. Living the dream again. Man i wish you find more. Just awesome that you are telling us the story as it unfolds. gold bars next?? congrats

Not sure what you mean, sorry?

Good idea about the Hookah, but it would kinda advertise my location - possible to certain people who would gladly move in on it of they could!
out of curiosity, what system do you use?

Most my diving is done below 50 ft so I use HP120 cft bottles with Nitrox for extended bottom time. If I plan on shallow dives then I would use 80s or 72s but I have plenty of them so BT isn't an issue. I use to dive for sea urchins and would make 5 dives a day in 15-20ft at around 90 min. a dive, lots of BT there.
If I were in the BVI and had a good shallow wreck I would consider a hookah system but like you said, others would get curious about what you were up to so maybe scuba is the way to go but just use more bottles.
Good luck and good hunting,
