Years ago pirates and saliors stopped off in Carlisle Bay , Barbados for rum,sugar cane , and yep maybe a little pirating. While on the ship they drank and party like we do and some times they would throw a bottle or two over board. well 200-400 hundred years later heres come little old me diving to collect them here are two I got Friday REALLY COOL stuff
Also got a bullet bottle label Barbados, 120ft vis was 80ft. I will post bullet bottle later need to take pic of it. Carlisle Bay, Barbados was a main shipping port to come to new world back in the day from England and other countries
