I'm not questioning these guys' credentials as archaeologists, but the statement "-In the very first dives to the wreck, divers returned a ship's bell dated 1709. This proves the wreck can't be any older than that date. " doesn't make sense. Is there any reason to think that, if the ship lost its original bell (for whatever reason), that the new bell wouldn't have a different date?

I wonder why they don't just build a cofferdam around the wreck, since it's in 23' of water. It'd make things much easier to work on and easier to retrieve the LOOT!

The philosophers Stone about the archeology of any know pirate ship, is a map and instructions to the money pit of Oak Island:

YAAR ME HARTIES !! If the archeologists think Blackbeard had the Oak Island map aboard, it explains why things are going so slowly. They don't want to miss it!



Teach was a good Scot gone wrong, but not by far BTW.

Teach was just ahead of his time. In he had lasted until 1776 he might have become a co-founder of the US Navy along with a guy named Jones?
