The participants are modern day treasure hunters. If you have ever seen the movie, "Sahara", they are similar to the role [i]William H. Macy[/i] plays. He owns a ship and scours the planet searching for sunken treasure. This would include Matthew McConaughey and Steve Zahn's characters; searching for the wreck of the [i]CSS Texas[/i].

In this Roleplay, your character is a crewman aboard a salvage ship used to search the earth for sunken treasure. The ship is currently docked in Honolulu Harbor. There are other hunters searching for some of the same treasures. You are looking for a specific treasure from a pirate ship that sank or was lost 170 years ago. 

Your ship is named after the old English ship, [i]“Charles Henshaw”[/i] that was boarded by pirates and relieved of her prize. But no one knows what happened to the [i]“Castillo del Mar”[/i] which made off with over 28 million dollars' worth of gold. Did it sink somewhere south of Hawaii, or did it evade the British Navy to survive and hide its treasure somewhere else?

Will the other treasure hunters work with you when clues are discovered leading to their current location, or will they impede your progress and make life difficult for you?
