:58:00
Why didn't you blow that boat up?
:58:03
Because of what you found, boy. I think
you ought to have a look at this.
:58:10
I never seen one like that before.
:58:14
That's an 18th-century
escutcheon plate.
:58:19
You might be right. There just might be
a king's ransom down there.
:58:26
It would take three keys to open
the box that that plate came from.
:58:32
The captain would have one.
:58:34
The governor of Havana had two.
:58:36
Only the owner would have all three.
:58:39
So only the owner could open it
on his own, right?
:58:43
Three-key lock like that is very rare.
Very rare, indeed.
:58:48
Only used on nobility business.
:58:51
What would a plate like this be doing
in a World War Il munition ship?
:58:56
Yes, well, now....
:58:59
I don't know.
:59:02
Suppose you have two storms...
:59:06
...hundreds of years apart,
springing up from the same quarter...
:59:11
...and they catch two ships,
making for the same shelter.
:59:15
Might they not drive them up
on the same reef?
:59:20
You think the current could bring that
plate up through a split in the hull?
:59:26
Why hasn't anybody found it?
:59:28
I don't know, but we're gonna
find it in the Havana manifest.
:59:32
I got survivors' accounts.
:59:33
I ought to be able to tell you
who that ship is, where she come from.
:59:37
These are the Spanish.
This is the translation.
:59:41
You and your beginner's luck.
:59:48
If there is something,
what would it take to bring it up?
:59:52
Well, under normal circumstances...
:59:54
...using a sand gun
and DESCO equipment...
:59:57
...clear water and a lot of luck,
just a few days.
