Found a wreck today!!!

[porgyhunter]

Thanks for the defense Guys!!!! You said it all Dave...The carving was missing on the other side of the bow....it is of only value to me. Just a neat memory for and ole Scuba diver. David S. Great diving with ya. Lookng forward to a return visit. Have you been hearing ''Tanker Props'' in your sleep?

bwade is half right. You shouldn't have pried the carving off. You should have gotten some friends together, come back with lift bags and taken the whole boat! Possibly restored to it's former glory,THAT would be a conversation piece!

"I pryed a oramental carving off the bow...Too dark for my camera." <<<<<< NOBODY should EVER remove ANYTHING from a wreck EVER !!!

That's disgusting behaviour to me or anyone I know who finds wrecks and documents them to identify them

There are differing perspectives regarding wrecks. Since I have found stuff (wrecks) I find your pejorative comment out of place. It's all about context. In this case it isn't a historic wreck by any means.

Unless its in a protected area like the great lakes or st Lawrence or a war grave any wreck I'd find I'd pick clean of what I wanted before I told anyone. Especially an old private leisure vessel. If it was in saltwater where it would soon rust away anything but a war grave is stuff to add to my collection first and foremost. I did the work, I get first rewards as I see fit. Surrender the booty mates!

its all "secret code" -

"Ornamental Carving" translates to "Brass Cannon"

When you put in the time and find your wreck, you can do whatever you want with it.

Nice find porgy hunter, no apologies required. We have a shipwreck challenge going on in our local lakes. After collecting any booty, we post gps coordinates for other divers.
