Pirate Gold Legend From Cape Verde Haunts Adventurer Moura
Manuel Moura, a descendant of a La Plata survivor, seeks the sunken pirate treasure said to lie off the Cape Verde Islands. The tale recounts the 16th century ship La Plata seized by pirates, its wreck, and a fortune of English sovereigns worth millions, guarded by storms and history. Moura, once a deep sea diver, recovered coins from Cape Verde wrecks and plans new expeditions with younger divers to reach the mother treasure buried fathoms deep. He holds a chart of the reef and urges others to join in the perilous hunt for wealth guarded by old buccaneers.
