Re: Spanish Plate Fleet wrecks

It appears that one of the plate fleet wrecks (San Pedro) is off limits because it is in a florida state park. Is this true?

How long do you think it will be before all the treasure is salvaged from the Spanish plate fleet with all of these salvaging companies going at it?

Not off limits to diving, just to treasure hunting!

Re: Spanish Plate Fleet wrecks

Larsmed kindly removed the picture.
You might want to get a copy of Duncan Mathewsons book, Treasure of the Atocha. That is the source material and has lots of my pictures. The most recent book on Atocha is by Jedwin Smith and called Fatal Treasure.
