HMS Griffin plundered by Mel Fisher



While doing research for yesterdays blog i dug up some more info about HMS Griffin. If you remember this blog and this one where i spoke about Barbuda's wrecks I thought quite a bit about Mel Fisher and his time in there. Many say that he found valuable things on Barbuda's wrecks and took off before the Antigua and Barbuda government could stop him. Who knows if that was the case, but i did find one other website that had info on the Griffin. This site is selling musket shot from the original HMS Griffin. There is no doubt that Fisher's gang stole them from Barbuda. Oh well....
