What storm was that? A Northeaster? Would like to see pics. Did you see that HUGE emerald that girl found looking for seashells in March 2007?


Nice 1715 Fleet 8 reale! 8)

It was a Northeaster probably 8 years ago. Don't ask me how many times I went hunting and never found anything. I'm hoping for the royal eight next.

I missed the Emerald find and can't find any information on it.
