Next April I will return to Western Australia to the site of the first settlement of Australia by the survivors of the Vergulde Draeck (1656). I will also continue my research on the Zuytdorp survivors and new evidence of lost white tribes in the north western part of Western Australia and Victoria.
If there is anyone out there who has information that may indicate evidence from the survivors of Dutch 17th century shipwrecked sailors in Western Australia or 18th century Dutch sailors in Victoria, please contact me.
I am also looking for a sponsor to engage in the recovery of a Dutch 17th century shipwreck. Please keep in mind that all the treasure recovered will automatically belong to the Western Australian Government covered under the Shipwrecks Act.
