Interesting... any updated links on that one ? Last I heard there was rumor the ship was discovered off the British coast. But there is much...

That's the key ! Even the appearance of impropriety can be fatal, even if it's actually on the up-and-up. Good luck, MagMan ! Happy searching.
Subtle... but yes, it's a hint. :D Further subtle clues (in addition to the bombs dropped in prior posts) : Method of manufacture : PROOF...
