Part 3/8:
For Miguel’s expedition, it wasn’t merely a treasure hunt; it represented a journey towards understanding history. Oceanographer Griffin Johnson highlighted the immense difficulty and required expertise in locating maritime treasures, emphasizing the sheer enormity of searching through the ocean's expanse, which he likened to finding "a needle in a haystack." The risks were high, and the waters of the Pont Inlet—described as the "shark capital of the world"—added to the danger.
The days leading up to the expedition were filled with anticipation, with the team thoroughly assessing the waters and weather conditions. Miguel, enthusiastic and determined, expressed his hope that they would document everything, thus allowing investors to participate in the historic discovery.
