Herbo,
Have you asked Bob M.?
He seems to keep up on scuttlebutt.
All the best,
Don (R/V Explorer, Roatan--back in the day: 'Capitana' 1654 Ecuador)

If the Beacon is still moored at Puerto Plata it should be moved within the hour--if not yesterday--or face hurricane Irma bearing down on that location.

Everyone can read the dates. It is a starting place, right?

Do you have any better information? If not, try to refrain from comments.

Scott Heimdal Operation

 

[Mackaydon]

Interesting, yet dated,video on Scott Heimdal's ops on the 'Capitana' with the R/V Beacon as his salvage vessel.
He worked the site after my crew was there with the R/V Explorer.

Seeker, end the insults!

 

[seekerGH]

Yes, Don, the workings on the Capitana with your team, and the much later Heimdal adventure. Things were a bit different when you guys worked the site.

I dont see that the Heimdal team found much from the search, and of course, the unusual team with RSOPS.

Still, since Herbo is looking for the Beacon (for sentimental reasons only? (not serious ops reasons)),
SH was the last known operator , and is apparently still around.

Seeker, I will not warn again. If you find you can't log in you know why.
