A recipe for gravlox/gralax which is a simple way to cure salmon. We haven't made it for awhile just to be on the safe side we always slice it and freeze it first before eating.

P-47 Thunderbolt. Weighing in at over 22,000 lbs., heavy is an understatement.

WWII's most popular and recognizable aircraft, the P-51 Mustang. Pic was taken moments before it shot down a Focke Wulf 190. (darn fockers!:laughing7:)

No it was the jonah crew.....rumor is that it was a ploy to raise investment money for this years digging. I cant confirm that....either way even if the facts are fudged a bit capt. Jonah and his guys have made some great finds and athey definitely got 21 more coins from somewhere. They were not 8 reales as many pics are showing. Looked like 2 reales to me. The pic I saw showed each 1 next to a quarter and they were all smaller. The ones I saw were not cleaned yet. My friend found 16 marevidis at an AIS indian village site on the mainland side of the river. Practically no one knows of that site. I have been promised a look at this site next time I'm in vero.
 

My friend rarely shows his finds except to buyers. He sometimes gets more from the beach and other sites than they get diving the wrecks. I'm in aw of his skills and he manages to make a living full time treasure hunting from the beach and mainland sites. All of it wreck related stuff.
 

Morning folks.
 

Morning bill. How is everything Northish?:laughing7:
