Hi Stretch , Thanks for the post, No I was not in that TV shot it was taken on July 14 just two weeks after Tim bought the land. Tim knew nothing about the site and quoted what me and Joan had found. Tim does not do any research, he takes it from other people. We turned OI down on the 1st show of the first season . I didn't even know who they were and what was going on at the time. We had a big big backhoe on our site with a lot of work that we needed to do in 4 days and after what we went through with American Unearthed we were not that willing to go on TV again until we had more control of what was to be filmed. The film crew doesn't give the
about you they are there to do a job and they will do it.
We have some major finds that could help Marty and Rick with their hunt. Here is what happen on this show. You have two people that have a lot of money that want to look for treasure ,
WRONG , You have to be a treasure hunter to hunt . You must know the land , whats under the land. You must know your tools of the trade that will work in that area. They failed on all of this. They had money and hired experts but again if you don't know the land and whats down under ,its a waste of time. They picked Kelyco and that was their first big mistake . I told Marty to use my person from Ohio and the job would be done right. This was about my idea to use equipment on ice , that was MY IDEA, and they did it wrong .
STUPID. IT is easy to check out most of the land and the swamp for metals but they hire so called experts and see what it got them. Ya the experts look good on TV and that's about it. Maybe when they are done with the Island my crew will drop by and check it out. No matter what they say about the 1600's to 1750's that's the time period for when the Money Pit was found. We have many artifacts from the same period at our site (BIG DEAL ) there were a lot of ships and people in the area then. NO there is more to the 1360's date on who and what dug the Money Pit and they are not even close yet. I said it 5 years ago on TV and still hold to it. Hobson Island was first , Oak Island was 2nd , New Ross was 3rd and Roslyn Castle was last.
