Thumbs Up Very interesting!

And I always believed he was aboard Queen Anne's Revenge when Lieutenant Maynard defeated him - Maybe the fight would have ended differently if Blackbeard still had sailed his beloved flagship? Sailor

This article is interesting and has fueled my brain for more information, any idea when they will be finished with extracting the cannon and gathering other "artifacts" from the ship?
I would also like to know how large this C23 cannon is. I have been looking around the Internet for information on it but, Alas! To no avail.
