On September 27 the crew of the DARE had their first opportunity to showcase their skills and the
newly refurbished vessel. Telemundo, the national Spanish television station, arrived to document
our salvage operation at sea. The majority of the crew on the DARE is Hispanic and the interviews
done by Natalia, the Telemundo correspondent, were conducted entirely in Spanish. Mel Fisher’s
Treasures is thrilled to have our story reach a new audience. Thank you Natalia, JohnPaul and
Frank for all of your hard work. The piece will air October 29th, on the program Nitido on
Telemundo Network. See how much of the Atocha story and our operation you can figure out
when it is told en Español!
