Met an interesting chick last night....

[STR8UP]

When I first met her I was told she rides a motorcycle. Hmmmm......not sure how to take that as I don't care much for girls who act like guys.

Anyways, the night goes on and I find out she's into scuba, something I've always wanted to try. Then she drops the bomb....SHE'S A TREASURE HUNTER!

If I had to choose one non-sexual fantasy to live out before I die it would be to dive for sunken treasure. Turns out that her family has a lease to dive the 1715 treasure fleet wrecks and my dream just might come true!

Anyways, she is pretty good looking and despite her tomboyish lifestyle she is still feminine, but I'm not really that attracted to her. I just hope I can manage to work my way out onto that treasure boat somehow!

Interesting.

If you find any treasure (jewels, those big gold pirate coins, etc.) , do you get full salvage rights or do you have to give most of treasure to the local government and only get the 10% finder's fee?

Not sure exactly how it works, but I know they sublease from the Fisher family who has salvage rights in that area. I think the state does get a piece as well.

After the hurricanes come through a lot of guys hit the beach in that area (no permit needed for that) and find coins, rings, etc. I haven't managed to make it over after a storm...too bad.

I have a top of the line waterproof metal detector and I have found modern treasure (gold, silver, and platinum rings, earrings and such). People call you a geek but it's a BLAST finding valuable stuff.

What kind of bike does she ride? I prefer chicks who drive crotch rockets because many of them wear sexy full body suits that hug and curve in just the right way!

Treasure hunting is my second dream job after yacht sales!!
I'm hoping to break into both after I move to Florida. I'm gonna study archeology and ocean marina when i get down there. Should be a lot of work but '06 is suppose to be my year of changes.

I believe it is a crotch rocket, matter of fact.

The story of the 1715 hurricane is an amazing piece of history! If I were to find just ONE coin from one of the wrecks I would die a happy man.
