1733 Wrecks

seascan · Jul 3, 2013

I was looking at artificial reefs and shipwrecks on www.downwindrun.com and noticed that all the 1733 wrecks were posted with locations (in the keys). I assume all of these have been salvaged and re-salvaged. Anyone know if there have been any recent finds on them?

There has been no searching anywhere in the keys for treasure since it has been designated the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.

Thanks for that, Salvor6. That makes sense since I haven't been able to find any recent reports of salvage.

After I posted the question I found some information about Art McKee and the artifacts that he discovered. I bet he had a fun life!

Not true Salvor 6, I have an arrest on a site. And as we speak Marty Maylach and a couple nimrods are looking for Conways Wreck and have a permit to do so. There's activity but its and has to be clandestine .Remember "ALL CULTURAL RESOURCES BELONG TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES" and I am saying this in a robotic voice , like the robot on lost in space, Will Robinson.

I am now feeling like a zombie, arms stretched out in front of me, compelled to head towards the exit for I-95 South: MUUUUST GOOO TOOO THEEE KEEEEYS.
