Into the Deep aboard Ellen B
Wednesday - we leave the Wharf in Somerset Village in the North-West corner of Bermuda, motor past Teddy Tucker's home, a great Bermudan treasure diver who was friends with Peter Benchley and inspiration for the book and movie THE DEEP - based on a real shipwreck called The Constellation, which was carrying a cargo of drugs during World War II. That particular ship sits on not one, but two old Spanish ships, wrecked hundreds of years earlier than The Constellation. Near the wrecks, outside the outer reefs, we catch Bermudan Chubb, Corny Grouper (red fish) and Speckled Rock Hind - note the latitude/longitude on the GPS.
