It sounds you know more of the current state of affairs in regards to this treasure legend. Care to elaborate further?

Hello Crow,
Just a passive interest into the legend and if anything more has come to light on the legend.
I think it would be wise not to elaborate.
Only seven more years until the 300th anniversary of Le Vasseurs hanging, would be nice to see it resolved by then, no?

Ha ha ha 7 years? Hell Old crow could be out of runway by then?

[THE TRUE SEEKER]

Jacob de Bucquoy, a Dutch scholar who sailed with Taylor, said:

Leaving Delagoa Bay, the pirates Taylor and La Buse went to cruise off Mozambique, but without success. Annoyed, La Buse and several of his officers plotted on the night of August 17-18, 1722, to abandon Taylor and go to the West Indies, but the other pirates of the Defense, who did not agree, fired a cannon shot and hoisted the black flag, a signal of distress. The council met and, after an investigation, demoted La Buse, who was, along with his accomplices, sentenced to be whipped at the foot of the mainmast, and everything they possessed was confiscated for the benefit of the community. 1

Reading this description, it seems unlikely that La buse's treasure exists.

German researcher Carola Dahlke has also revealed that the legendary Flaming Cross of Goa does not exist. 2

The Golden Cross of Goa was nowhere to be found, neither in contemporary sources
nor in any publication from de la Ronciere. `Therefore the author assumes that it entered the legend after 1940. However, after de la Roncieres publication, the legend, and the `size of the buried treasure developed into an exciting-sounding sailor’s yarn and moved further and further away from the facts of the contemporary sources. If the famous Cross of Goa, which plays such an important role in nowadays interpretation of the legend of la Buse, is derived from the legend of the in-quistition in Goa in 1619, as described above,it seems almost cynical that treasure hunters
today are looking for this Flaming or Fiery Cross.

And she said this

Following the historical sources, a potential treasure would then only come from the share of la Buse’s crew.
