    Last week, a team of divers recovered a massive treasure from a 350-year old shipwreck in the Bahamas. Whilst previous teams of treasure hunters have scoured the wreckage for centuries, this expedition is the first scientific survey, and actually licensed by the Bahamian Government. The recovered treasure is currently being displayed in the just recently opened Bahamas Maritime Museum.
    This ship was called the Nuestra Señora de las Maravillas. In English, that means, "our lady of wonders".

    Nice to see the Bahamian tradition of salvaging spanish wrecks continuing to this day.

    Reason for not getting a galleon as a pirate ship: it takes a very large number of crew to sail a galleon efficiently (500+ maybe)
    So, no matter how big the plunder you get, the crew will still mutiny against you for getting far too little

      You definitely dont need a 500+ crew to man a galleon, but still not practical

      That and now you can actually get chased to death by the Navy because there's no shallow harbor for you to hide from their fleets of big ships.

    The Galleon is a Full rigged Ship 500 tones , cheaper to build than a Carrack 1000 tones.

    If I remember correctly, aren’t these 11 Spanish treasure galleons that sank of the coast of Florida? I remember hearing about that, and that the Spanish recovered about 200,000 gold and silver coins, only for pirates to take those coins from them.

    Pirates could potentially use a fully made galleon for decoy. The enemy is focusing on the big obvious target mean while the real strike force are getting into position using 21 canoes and a slope.
    Edit: While a galleon could hold huge guns and take a lot of hits from enemy shots as a distraction so that the real strike force can get into place the real problem with this plan is finding only enough crew to move the ship evasively while firing. What they are volunteering for is to get shot at so everyone else don't have to.

    Hey man, could you do a video about the Instruments we might have encountered on ships during the early 1700s? I wanted to make a pirate for renfairs and some other conventions.... my first guess was some sort of concertina.... but I found out pretty fast that they were more a thing of the 1840s and after that. A hurdy gurdy maybe?
    I could take a violin, but this is an instrument I am not really good with XD so no favour for other people's ears.
    Maybe you could make a lost or so wirth instruments sailors or and pirates might have brought with them on their long journeys.

    Bro if YOU did your research you would know that Blackbeard was actually a ginger with two hooks and two peg legs. He lost both his hand and legs at the same time during a wicked hot Yahtzee match 😂. Love your vids BTW!!
