Artifacts found at a reef near the beach

I attached the photos of bronze parts and some wood found in a shallow reef, have you guys seen something like that before? is that a bronze plank to join pieces of wood? any idea of the kind of vessel or age?

The second pic looks like a winch handle for a boat trailer winch.

I don't know what they are but if they have any significance and were found in waters off the Florida coasts, then State of Florida Officials will show up shortly to confiscate them and they will probably never be seen again.

Cant zoom in on the third image. It appears fairly modern given the patina and metal type.

With the others, they appear fairly modern. There is little wear, patina, or concretion.

Salvor6, looks like the second is the same assembly as the first, just a smaller piece of one. Same carriage head bolt to plate.

Looks like bronze parts to a modern wooden ship. But who builds wooden ships anymore? Good find, keep looking in that area you will find some cool items I am sure.

Yes, that is what I said first,.... "modern artifacts",..... but two much bronze's pins and wood, may be, twenty century first half?
