Deep Blue Marine (DPBE)

Ed,
I am not defending Wilf, but if it was a guess, that does not make it a lie. Unfortunately, the only people who knew with any certainty if there was treasure on board have been dead for centuries. There may well not be another coin there, but it is possible that there are. Only way to find out is to look.
As far as Wilf's good friend, if he had come back and said there was treasure, would you have been quoting him now?
I understand that Historical and Treasure don't have to be mutually exclusive.
