"Although there are cataloged 683 sunken Spanish galleons on the American coasts"
My favorite part... heh.
Ahhh yes...
Many more...
I think the realistic number is closer to 1000 myself.
On August 1, 2005, the stock market quotation of Odyssey Marine reached $ 5.49, but on November 1, 2005, fell to $ 3.02. The situation was disastrous. In 2006 reached $ 2.33. The media did not stop attacking Spanish presence Odyssey ships in the territorial waters of Spain. Particularly the journalist Pipe Sarmiento from Algeciras-La Linea. In the US media information is made known versions of the very different reality facts. They came to affirm that the Odyssey Explorer was working at sea when in fact it was docked in Gibraltar (see attached photo). From internet a guy named Javierowsky and another called Felipe were to reveal the daily situation of the Spanish press. It was necessary to sweep the voices of truth.
Meanwhile, Luis Valero and I were closing very serious agreements with the Ministry of Culture of Spain. One was the recovery of the remains and load the Spanish war frigate Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes. Yes, the same as it seems, and very interestingly, recovered by Odyssey in 2007. All this occurred in November 2005. These my statements are stated at the court papers that the Spanish police itself (UCO) wrote of phone conversations between Luis Valero, me and a senior official of the Ministry of Culture and prove all the facts irrefutably. A heap of matches begins to emerge!

Luis Angel [Valero] tells that Lafuente told about the issue of "Mercedes" and been told ahead with it, because it is a ship of the Spanish Navy. About Honduras, also through with this. They are all ready for the work, because we have to fill museums.

....for allegedly stealing artifacts. The story is on the Mel Fisher bulletin board.
Claudio's name is very familiar to many on this shipwreck forum.
