Identifying Targets
Jacksonville, Florida – September 9, 2014 - InvestorsHub NewsWire
- Blue Water Ventures International, Inc. (OTC:
BWVI) announced today that it recently launched the Ghost Fleet
Project and has discovered certain yet to be identified underwater
anomalies during its first days of operations. Company divers
will investigate targets found by the survey team over the next 30
days.
The Ghost Fleet Project is targeting richly laden ships that were
lost in deep water in the Florida Straits over the past 450
years. This project has been years in development and is the
culmination of extensive efforts in a variety of scientific arenas,
including; detailed historical research in record repositories
throughout the United States and Europe, computer simulations of
wind, wave and storm patterns, compilation of anecdotal information
from divers and fishermen, and correlation of all scientific data
with known shipwreck locations.
History
For centuries ships transported the wealth of the Americas back to
Europe. Over the years navigators learned the easiest way
back to Europe was to follow the powerful Gulf Stream current which
took them past the Florida Keys and up through the Florida
Straights; the narrow body of water separating Florida and the
Bahamas. Once past these areas ships could plot a course
across the Atlantic and back to Europe.
Hurricanes and Northeasters regularly come through this region
creating huge seas and devastating winds. When these
conditions collide with the powerful Gulf Stream current ocean
waves can grow to mountainous proportions. Once in the grip of
these powerful forces ships were helpless as they were driven by
the winds and blown ashore against the coast of Florida which is
evidenced by the countless shipwrecks lying in Florida waters.
The storms in this area can be so devastating that entire fleets
were lost at a time. The Great Spanish Treasure Fleets of
1622, 1715 and 1733 were destroyed and scattered their treasure
along Florida's coast. Treasures from these ships are still
being found to this day.
Ghost Fleet Ships
While untold numbers of ships were lost along Florida's coast, many
more ships were not so lucky. These ships were lost out at sea and
never made it far enough to wreck on the coast. Witnesses on board
ships that survived these powerful storms often recounted stories
of other ships in their fleet that were capsized by ferocious winds
and monstrous waves, while others were simply ripped apart
and disappeared beneath the waves. Individual ships traveling alone
never made their destination and went missing without a
trace. These are the ships being targeted by the Ghost Fleet
Project.
Recent Operations
Survey operations on the Ghost Fleet began last week in an area
that research indicates one or more of these wrecks may be
located. Our survey team, while using our side scan sonar
system has already begun locating unidentified targets.
As our surveys team expands into other areas our dive teams will be
investigating the various targets that we have identified to
determine whether they are of value to the Company. We will
be continuing this methodical process as the Ghost Fleet Project
move forward. These efforts are dependent upon other things, local
weather conditions and our ability to raise the proceeds needed to
finance our efforts.
