You can watch the most recent documentary about Blackbeard the Pirate and the Queen Anne’s Revenge shipwreck project at 10pm, July 16th (that’s tomorrow me hearties!) on PBS.
Underwater footage on Secrets of the Dead: Blackbeard’s Lost Ship was shot by our friends at Nautilus Productions.
UPDATE: You know, back in the day when the remains were found of what was believed to be Blackbeard’s pirate ship, the News & Record did a series of stories on the N.C. pirate with the addition of a cool-for-its-time website, www.blackbeardlives.com. In fact, when you Google references to “Blackbeard” the site often comes up high in the list of results.
Sadly, That site is no longer available, lost to several transitions of servers and hosts. Of course, the site hadn’t been updated since the ’90s, but it was still good to see it pop up in search engine results periodically.
I mention this because our friends at Nautilus Productions remembered the Blackbeard Lives site when we visited them at the beach a few weeks ago while we were talking with the chief archeologist on the project. He remembed the site fondly as well.
