The Crew of the Blue Water Rose recovered their first gold from the Margarita site. Showing
they are quick learners with a keen eye for treasure hunting, the guys brought up a small
gold flake followed shortly thereafter by a gold floweret with raised filigree design, both
recovered by Diver Chris Rackley. The ornate gold floweret was likely a part of a rosary.
Congratulations to Blue Water Ventures and the crew of Blue Water Rose!
