A Treasure Hunt in Pirate Hunters

Pirate HuntersThe fantasy about finding a sunken pirate ship and its treasure may almost be an impossible dream, but when the opportunity to search for a pirate ship came up John Chatterton and John Mattera decided to risk danger and financial ruin to find the pirate ship the Golden Fleece. The hunt for this elusive ship could easily go wrong from other treasure hunters trying to find the ship first to the money running out or simply not finding the ship, but if they find the Golden Fleece it will be only the second pirate ship ever found.

Pirate Hunters: The Search for the Lost Treasure Ship of a Great Buccaneer by Robert Kurson is the true story about the hunt for the Golden Fleece captained by the pirate Joseph Bannister. Finding the ship will take cunning and intelligence because Chatterton and Mattera must learn about Bannister to discover were the ship would have been when the Golden Fleece sunk. This adventure of a lifetime is about divers, pirates, and what it takes to try and make a dream come true.
