MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Marine Exploration, Inc. (OTCBB: MEXP - News), and its Joint Venture Partner Hispaniola Ventures, LLC, announces the RV Hispaniola is ready to resume salvage of the shipwreck at the North Coast site off the Dominican Republic. Bad weather, choppy seas, and poor visibility have delayed the continuation of treasure diving and the recon at another nearby proven site. Both wrecks can be worked concurrently using reef boats from the RV Hispaniola master vessel.
A packing seal discovered among the treasures has been sent to the authorities. Upon authentication, it will verify the name of the sunken ship and could considerably increase the valuation of the treasure found.
Burt D. Webber Jr., famed diver that in 1978 discovered the Concepcion in Dominican Republic waters, is currently the onsite Director of Operations aboard the RV Hispaniola treasure salvage vessel.
