The Conqusitador  (C-8) may pull up offshore after we are done working for the day at the Cabin Wreck and join the festivities. Possibly 4 people.

Thank you so much deepsix for putting this all together. It was so much fun today.  I wish I could have stayed for tomorrow, But so much to do at home and plus dakota was just starting a summer cold.  He had a good time too and the emerald was the highlight for him.  The FOOD!  It was all so great. Im so glad I got to meet some of the T-NET group. I really feel like I knew them anyway.  Trez has some awesome pitures to share too.  I wanted to listen to everyones story and I felt like I was running from table to table to get tidbits of great adventures.   Next time I want to see the cannons. 
 Thanks so much for the warm welcome!!!!

Well I went out to Deep six’s little gig today, and I must say if you weren’t there you missed quit a gathering and a great time.
I finally put some faces to the people on this site. When I was at peg legs expo I kept missing everyone.
We arrived about 8:20 or so after doing a bit of detecting around the Indialantic area, and couldn’t miss Brads white ranger with the green canoe on top. (Not really sure what he had in mind with that, seems like a guy with a plan when it happens.)
We had the emerald hunt early due to non TN people arriving and using the emeralds for little green rocks in their rock collection.
My not to well trained eyes could not find a thing even though Deep Six said they were in plain sight.
My buddy that came with me immediately found two and I talked him out of one. (What a guy, he gave me one)   I then found one on my own and still have the one he gave me. Grin
The next hunt was after a wonderful lunch cooked up by deep six. I must say, this man can make some food that you will bring you back for more.
The people over in the cove area where deep six hid his stuff were quit surprised by all the people with metal detectors rushing the beach at one time.
It must have been about 1000 degrees out there, but the heat went away in the heat of the search.
I don’t think anyone cracked a coil on someone else’s, but it was a close hunt and fun.
If I could remember everyone’s name I would be a politician, so give me a break if I forget your name.
T net names are easer.
I dint find the 8 real but did find the two buckles, some foreign coins and a Minelab pin (Do I get a free Minelab for that?).
 I am really happy to find something that one of our fellow T net members made from hand. That means a lot to me.
Deep Six did an outstanding job. That guy put some serious work and sweat, and I mean sweat into this outing. Once again Deep Six, Thanks for the good time.

P.S. The ear rings in the photo? Found those at Indialantic. I told my wife that rust was in, but she doesn’t want them. However, she does want the emeralds. ;)
Saw the Polly L on the way home.

I had a great time yesterday... I really enjoyed meeting everyone that showed up and those that gave me some advice.... Thanks for the info about the auctions instead of jewelers and pawnshops Deep Six... I didn't find anything on Turtle Beach But I did find a Russian coin at your hunt and that was fun too....It is going in my treasure chest (ammo box) maybe I will get to go back to the treasure coast after a storm or something...anyways happy hunting and be safe.

I dont see myself in any of the pics, but I was there. I found an emerald that looks to have been in the surf. Had a great time. I tried my Pi on the beach Sat afternoon and found out my sensitivity doesnt work and was stuck way to low. So instead of staying over at the Penwood, I drove on home. Everyone was Great and Im glad to have had the oppurtunity to meet y'all. Cant wait until next time and I will not start my drinking so early if its hot. Cheesy ;)
Here is a pic of Deepsix and Frank (a Garrett dealer) and nice guy who found 93 reales after the hurricane and also found the reale at the lagoon. Thank You Deepsix!!!

Although Jason (scubafinder), Pete (salvor6) and myself got there a bit late, we had a great time meeting folks, drinking beer, telling lies and we left with a 1/2 pig's worth of pork!

Thanks Deepsix47!

It was a great event and I am looking forward to the next one. The fall would be nice-when it is a bit cooler.

Yup!  It was a great time and I really enjoyed meeting everyone too!!  DeepSix put on an awesome BBQ with entrees with an international flair!  Between the great treasure hunting stories and the food, I felt like I had traveled the world!  I'm sorry I didn't make it to the hunt on Sunday, but it was just too gosh-darn hot!  My husband and I drove around the treasure coast though and found a bunch of places we will definitely go back when it's a little cooler.  DeepSix worked very hard on this get-together and I want to thank him so much.  I finally got to meet other MD'ers and they're all a great bunch of people!  T-Net is very lucky to have such warm and welcoming group of people on here.  Thanks to all of you and especially to DeepSix for showing us a great time!

On behalf on my wife and myself, I want to thank Deepsix for an outstanding time. The food was great and all the T-hunters were as nice in person as they are on this forum. It was nice to finally put a face with a name. If Brad ever has another outing, and you can, you should make the effort to go...you will not be disappointed. If only Brad could have lowered the temp about 20 degrees, but with all that food, who's complaining.

Thanks again Brad,


Mike & Trish

As a longtime friend of Deepsix, I want to thank all you guys and gals that showed up for the picnic. It really meant a lot to him to have such great people enjoy themselves at this outing. I myself have learned not to be suprised by his superb cooking. If you want something he cooks during the next picnic that is really special, try talking him into cooking up a drum of Gumbo! You'll love it! I want to say that I thoroughly enjoyed talking to all you guys. I wish I had gotten to meet everyone there, but the conversations I was having with those I met were so interesting, the time just flew by. See ya'll at the next one!!

I would like all of you that showed up at the party to know just how special you made it. It might have been my idea but each and every one of you are responsible for its success.

Each person attending made their own special contribution by just being there.  Treasure Net has great people aboard and for those that contributed surprises for me, all I can say is that they were really special and just made our little get together even more of a success. If I leave someone out please PM me so I can add you to the list for a public and personal thank you.

Maurice (donated coins to be buried), GoldenEagle and his lovely wife (the table of free handouts on treasure hunting), Aquanut (for getting up at 4:00am with me and helping me get the tables set up at the inlet), Crissy, Debbie and Lynda who kept me sprayed down with those little water bottles with the fans on them and helped with the cooking), Trez who brought the albums of his treasure finds and shared them along with his knowledge so generously with everyone), Tom, Pete and Jason, the crew of the Conquistador, who so many people commented on how cool it was to meet treasure hunters that were actually out working the treasure fleet (I hope you guys ate well Saturday night), Big Cypress (who brought along those really great finds of his) and each and every one of you that brought along extra ice and offered to help in anyway you could. Mitch and the Sebastian Archaeology Society (what a super group of people and with so much knowledge of the local area). Thank you just doesn't seem enough somehow.

I must have missed somebody and if I did I offer you a heart felt apology right up front. 

I would also like to comment on the children that came along. Each and every one of you were well behaved, courteous and no doubt a part of the future of treasure hunting. You are a credit to your parent's and they deserve to be very proud of you.

I was very busy and tired by the end of the day and didn't get a chance to meet all of you but I look forward to us doing this again in the future (when the temps cool off a bit....lol). We might even be fortunate enough to do it around the time of a good winter storm. I was thinking possibly around March sometime.

All of you are the very best of the treasure hunting community and it was super fun being at the party with you.
Deepsix

It really was a great time...I was a little upset with our engine troubles on the boat when I got there, but after a few beers and a few treasure tales, I was glad we got the opportunity to go. It's always cool to meet the folks you hear from everyday here on TNET. I'll be back for the second one, and maybe we can even show up on time next time. Thanks Brad for putting it together....next time, LET SOMEONE HELP YOU! LOL We all tried to help him load the car and even after his long day, he wouldn't accept it, he just insisted that we all sit and talk. Great guy! rest assured that the crew ate well that night.

Thanks!

Just wanted to say thanks Deepsix for a fantastic day at the Inlet....anyday is a good day there, but you made this one a little bit more special.
Meeting the t-net members was a blast...the food and cold livasions were all quite tasty.
Again, you worked hard on this and it showed.....

Aquanaut, I remember, that's pretty good for an old man like myself. It was the 1715 Beach Party, or a week of diving down in the Keys, and I try to never miss the opportunity of diving in such a target rich environment.

It was great. All 5 Emeralds, the belt buckles, coins and items kindly donated by Minelab and Maurice were found. In addition clad, pop tabs and other regular beach finds were made. It was a blast and we'll probably do another one when it cools off a bit.
