...and the only person to verify this alleged Templar ship discovery is (do we need a drum roll)- SCOTT WOLTER!We're going on a 1977 "find" that went unreported and a stone jammed against a "mast" was the "evidence".
You don't wedge the mast in place on a 90 foot ship with a stone; and if it was in that good a shape in shallows with current as individual parts to be recognizable after 800 years that would be pretty miraculous.
Perhaps if he had mentioned it in 1977 the wreck could have been properly surveyed. We only have Ruh's word that it was reported to anyone and no documentation I would imagine. And when he did publish anything about it the original version was a fictional account.
I doubt anyone removed the wreck. That would require massive effort. It was probably just a hump on the bottom in a vague shape of a ship.
