Nice list, WreckWriter.
Welcome to the board.

:gorgeous:

 

[WreckWriter]

Thank you. Wrecks are all I do (for some time now), no interest in reefs. I've been away for a few years but that's ended. The list will grow quickly from here on out.

My favorite wrecks are ancient wrecks like:
"port royal" bahamas
"Verelst" mauritius, africa (diamonds)
"Trinidad" oceanside, calif. (aztec treasure)
"San Jacinto" great abaco bahamas (lots of bullets)
"Campania" firth of forth in Scotland (first aircraft carrier in history)
"Atocha" key west florida (lots of gold and silver *I have a coin)
and hundreds more. I wrote two books about the wrecks and my adventures. Want one?

 

[Natasha]

Two wreck writers? Do you two know each other?
I was able to find Capt. Thomas A. Scott's books in my handy dandy scuba book dictionary, but Bill yours are not listed.
I'd love one. How do I get it?
Thx.

 

[WreckWriter]

Nope, don't know Bill, not yet at least. I see that he specializes in the older wrecks whereas I specialize in more modern wrecks. I bet we have friends in common though.
