1715 Plate Fleet

[Darren in NC]

The Conquistador Crew is trying to fix a bent prop gained from grounding inside the channel of Sebastian Inlet. It'll be fixed soon and we'll be back with more pictures. We tried to notify the CG of the spot, but no answer. There is dredging still going on in the channel.

talking with the state of fla archie boys--- currently researching northly leads on a "missing" one--- trying hard to show "historically" documented proof from several differant sources as "proof" that the wreck does in fact exist and via hints from them and several old maps--- the "current" real world location of the actual wreck site----Ivan

Darren-
Thanks for the quick update on that...sorry to hear of the accidental grounding, hopefully no other damage to the Conq...Nautical charts do indicate Sebastian Inlet can be tricky, maybe they need to dredge that thing out another 10', eh.....

Once again,thanks for the quick response and keep us updated...

Anyone have any bonafide and verifiable info as to TOTAL REPORTED gold finds on the beaches from Sebastian to just south of Ft.Pierce...from say mid-1960's to present...
