HI all

I HAVNT GOT MUCH DETAILS , JUSt a Japanese sub going to Germany full of "GOLD"
was sunk. I beleive it was in the later stages of the war , and the reason for going to Germany was to buy Some technology for jet propulsion. Any info on this Wreck will be welcomed , Cheers Goldnboy Cool

I'll dig a little more if I get a chance
Looks like here is the place to watch for updates. Paul Tidwells site is still under construction.

Yeah a little strange, but I doubt there is a legal market for it. Looks like it's in the finance gathering mode.

yea i Guess they were after the yellow stuff, and got this brown stuff instead. It still seems a strange thing to do. I think it could make an interesting display in a museum? Anyways it will be interesting to se what happens next with this. I think it being a grave site miteslow up the whole process.

I thought that it being a gravesite would be a showstopper issue, but apparently they got an ok from Japan after some negotiation. The fact that nothing has happened for several years leads me to believe there is some problem with fund raising. It would make a great documentary though.

Millions of dollars of Spanish treasure await those who would dare brave the eye of the hurricane.
