Citadelgrad Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I hope they were smart enough to leave the area and leave no record of where they were, then contact ALL countries who might make a claim, and pitch them a take it or leave it percentage, otherwise, it stays lost. I've read horror stories of governments confiscating all of such booty. LSP_K2, TankBuster and JeepsGunsTanks 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read horror stories of governments confiscating all of such booty. This article suggests that the source of photos is a Colombian government controlled expedition, it is not clear if it is a direct government action or, through government funded exploration by third parties but regardless, it looks to me like Columbia has already said “dibs”. Above all for me, I love the documentaries about subjects like this, and I look foreword to seeing the whole store, and hopefully lots of high resolution imagery from the wreck site.

LSP_Ray Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I bet Spain is going to call their own dibs as it was their ship. They have done so before on discoveries off Florida. LSP_Ron, LSP_K2 and LSP_Matt 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
