<font color='#333399'>OK got to go along with you guys on this one.
Ben do you work for the BBC by any chance?
Must admit it was a bit tame and lifeless.
Jeremy Seal approached me last year about doing an episode on the Halsewell wreck site.
He gave up the idea saying our wreck wasn’t interesting enough and had no mystery so he went on to the Abergavenny. Can’t see what the mystery there is either its been sitting in Weymouth bay for 200 years and had its masts sticking out of the water at one point. I think Willie Wordsworth’s brother[John] was captain he blamed the pilot for loosing his ship.
Well if that was the best they could do then I’m glad he left us alone.
Mind you the diving on the Halsewell would not have been as easy as the Pomone, perhaps that’s what put him off as well. To see anything on our site you have to think about moving ten-ton boulders.
As for the anchor if anyone tried to lift it, it would most probably fall to pieces, it would only be the crud that is holding it together.
Perhaps it gets better?
Or as Ben said perhaps their boat sinks now that would be interesting.
Cheers
Bob
