madPete Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Saw this in the news today: https://www.yahoo.com/news/colombia-try-raise-objects-1708-181118094.html If we were true pirates, we would mortgage a submarine or raise an army to go pirate the booty... 11 Million Gold and Silver coins and Emeralds worth BILLIONS at current prices (and that's just what was officially listed in the manifest). Aye... Plunder Awaits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Handed Jill Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I didn't realise the Caribbean got that deep - I once swam out a mile from Jamaica and could still stand up, easily. That ship is 2,000 feet down. That WOULD be a challenge... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelsbagley Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Neat, I hope the archeological stuff can be rescued despite the monetary stuff, or at least a balance found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
