Geocache Description:


This virtual cache is near the monument for the Wreck of the Ten Sails that occured off the coast. I originally hid a container here, but the risk for loss from hurricanes was too great. The H.M.S Convert and nine other ships struck and foundered on the reef on their way to England. To get credit for the cache, email me the date that the ships sank. Legend says that royal personage was aboard one of the ships and that King George lll granted the Caymanians freedom from personal taxation as a reward for helping save this persons life and the lives of many others. You can still see the tip of one of the anchors, although the other large wreckage you'll see is from more recent wrecks. The view from the monument is spectacular. Be sure to visit the blow holes nearby also.
