the 1728 map by Gerard Van Keulen --shows a spot off below St Augustine that says in dutch "here lies the remains of the silver fleet Ao 1715 " ...just saying --make a mere 13 years after the fact * and dutch vessels were well known for fishing over wrecksites with grappels on a rope ….to fish up treasure chest..and it jives with the sept 20th 1715 report by salmon "9 vessels are known to have sank and of the "2 missing gallons there is little doubt that they sank on the seas because wreckage of a large vessel or vessels was found on the north coast of St Augustine.."
