For all the complaining in this thread you would think BVI punched a baby. This is one of my favorite threads on treasurenet even without constant updates. BVI found himself a boatload of awesome and Im sure he wants to share when he is good and able. Hope things are staying as simple as they can be while you are working this thing!
 

BVI.......Most of us understand. Those that don't are just jealous. Love to see you on the news someday. Good luck and be very carefull!!!
 

BVI...keep doing whatever you need to do. Thanks for sharing.

You go Captain!:skullflag: Aargh!! Pay no attention to the Naysayers. Be safe and continue to skim under the radar of those (Pirates and Skallywags) who wish to take what you have found. If at some time in the future it is safe to do so, then you can prove the Naysayers wrong.

Also, :thumbsup: to you Limitool for standing up for BVI!

Well thank you Frank.... Just me thinking (I know - don't) but does anyone else think that maybe the stock photos posted by BVI was maybe a subtle "HINT"? Maybe he is under contract now and must follow guidelines now or maybe he needed to just SHUT IT DOWN for some other good reason. I just took the photos as a "hint".

Frank... A BIG PUBLIC THANK YOU FOR SENDING BACK MY PINPOINTER TO ME WHICH I ACCIDENTLY LEFT IN CAB OF TRUCK WHEN VISITING EAST TENNESSEE LAST FALL.

I think you know my answer to that question!

Also, no thanks necessary on the pinpointer! I just wish that I had found it earlier! Note to myself: Clean out truck more often, not just when you are looking for something. LOL!!

I haven't posted in a while but I follow this thread religiously. BVI Hunter, good luck to you. You appear to be living the dream. I envy and admire you at the same time. Hopefully you will be able to tell "The rest of the story" at some point but don't let the haters bring you down. This thread and your story to date are AWESOME!
 

This has been an amazing discovery and I hope to see more soon have followed since the beginning very glad you are getting to live a MDers fantasy.:headbang:
 

I hope he's on his own island where he doesn't have internet access, enjoying life day by day with no worries in the world.
 

He's turned into a bit of a legend here! Still waiting on my yacht invite, the gf loves the BVI, what a great excuse to get down there!

Anyone else ever read threads on here and want to buy a bunch of new toys and take up more hobbies? This is one of those threads. I need a metal detector, a scuba cert, and...well, water i guess. That last one is probably important.

Oh yes, scuba diving is on my bucket list.
 

This post is in response to some earlier posts I've read in this thread:
I believe we need to show this man some respect! He is no different than any one of us, in that we could be in the same situation he is in at any given time. We share the same hobby, right? We are after the same thing, right? It's possible. For those who were rude, disrespectful and quick to judge, I would be ashamed. Are we adults, or children? I realize this is not going to win me a popularity contest, and perhaps even target me for the same treatment the OP is up against, but I really don't care. It takes more time to stop on the tread, type a "tantrum" and make a fool of yourself than it would to bypass it and make everyone else, including the original OP, happy. And for the OP: Dude, keep doing what you're doing! Congratulations! Great work! I, as well as many others, will continue to follow you're thread but we also understand that you have to take your time and do things properly. Focus on the people who got your back, and forget the other ones. You have the find of a lifetime! Enjoy it!!
