Add to it, they're in state waters......Kyle

got the only recovery permit in 30 years because some at the state screwed up. But he's not a "bridge" between HTQ and the state, as some described him years ago.

Discovery reveals some apparent bad blood between Kyle and the state.

I know Roger is gone, but this sentiment hasn't changed at the Bureau.

"It's public property, and you can't steal it," said Roger Smith, state underwater archeologist with the Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research.

Smith said treasure hunters need to apply for a "permit to explore historic shipwrecks," and the chances of being granted permission to excavate a ship and recovering its bounty are remote. Because shipwrecks are valuable pieces of history, the state would prefer they remain undisturbed, no matter how much they hold in riches.

"The idea of keeping what you find is a 19th and early 20th Century notion, whose time has come and gone," Smith said.
