Bob Marx worked on Flor de la Mar way back. Didn't know if you were looking for info on it or not.

I think there may have been some claim of it being found some time back. Some guy who had spent about 10 years tracking it down.

It would be an awesome find Cool

don't think he found it despite what he claims - i think there is a member here who worked with him on trying to locate the frol, i once saw a map of his search location and personally i think he was way off from the documents i've managed to find online regarding its sinking. anyone who has any info regarding the flor de la mar pls jump in a share Great

If it's who I think you are referring to he had some data which led him to believe the original accounts were wrong. I can't really recall the details as it was a couple years back but seems like it was discussed here if you read through the old stuff.
