One more thing, what is going on with the cluster of ships found worth at least 2B?? Did we find them, r thet ours, and if in not so deep water, why arent we diving on them now?
The Atocha had no emeralds aboard according to the ships manifest. They executed one sailor in Havana that tried smuggling on a few emeralds. They may be confused with the other 12 ships that sank or the surviving ships that threw heavy objects overboard to save their ask! or try to. That was just in one storm in one season 12 ships sank. I say that over the centuries you could put all the 100's of ships that sank in the Florida waters on a board and throw darts at it to see which ship you pick. No ship, no back half to the Atocha, no notta! The emeralds could have ended up there a million different ways. I see the Fishers throwing anything to see if it will stick. If it does I pity anyone that finds anything in the western Hemisphere! Because we all will know that it had to come from the Atocha! LOLOLOLL Whatever! Only my opinion of course.
