Treasure Fleet Saga Recalled as Vigo Bay Galleons Lifted
The Chicago Chronicle reports the long effort to raise the eleven sunken treasure ships from Vigo Bay, Spain, the 1702 battle that left fourteen of twenty three galleons at the harbor bottom, and the later waves of investment, competing companies, and partial recoveries. The saga highlights John E. B. Gowan and others who pursued salvage, with ingots found and large potential values cited, amid historic naval clashes and shifting fortunes.
