Sunken Pirate Ship - Whydah

You hear so much about pirates in the age of sail, but rarely do we hear about pirate shipwrecks. The pirate ship Whydah is the exception. From the expeditions website:
"The Whydah was the first pirate shipwreck to be positively identified, and, nearly a quarter of a century later, remains the only pirate shipwreck whose identity is unquestionably authenticated."

The Whydah lies off the coast of Cape Cod and is still providing treasures 25 years after its discovery.
