We can help with your tv problem, but there's nothing we can do about your ears. I bet you had a tough time in school.

I checked http://www.hulu.com/ and http://www.fancast.com/ online for you to see if the series was added yet. Nope, too new I think. But if you keep checking, they may show up.

what kind of treasure was on board? did it carry 42 lb cannon?

sabre15 · Jan 29, 2009

28-42 LB cannon, can you imagine the destruction! What was her cargo?

ivan salis · Feb 5, 2009

yep the 7 inch bore (42 lber cannons) 100 count total cannons and 1100 man crew AND 1744 DATE of sinking --- gave her away (HMS VICTORY)* not many vessels of that time frame carried guns of that size , and only 1 WAS lost in that general area that is unaccouted for..*

note most british ships had a 32 lbers as their " big guns" --- (the 42's were just too dang big and unweildy)only 1st rate "battleships" carried em :wink:

I am dissapointed to see that Mr Bass believes we are out for only monetary gain. I believe companies have shown that responsible salvage can be profitable both monetarilly and historically.

The estimated cost to properly excavate and document this wreck is over $30 million. Who is going to pay for it? UNESCO? That will be the day!

Tighten the laws against looting, but do not tighten the laws on the people who abiding by them!

Salvor6 · Feb 6, 2009

It is hilarious to see ads for shipwreck coins in the same article from George Bass!

silvercop · Feb 7, 2009

can anyone tell me what the "web site" is that they were talking about that someone can log onto and see their positions? they seem to spend alot of time playing cat and mouse games with there locations and i heard them say a few times that they watch "internet activity" when they are treasure hunting. has anyone got a link? found this interesting....

You will need to register. Not sure if there is a fee.
