Last year, Odyssey Marine filed a complaint in rem against a 17th century merchant vessel located at 49° 25′ N, 6° 00′ W. I couldn’t decipher the coordinates either, but I was able to find the location of the wreck through Google Maps once I figured out that 6° W translated to -6°. I knew that the ship was not wrecked near the border between France and Luxembourg.
