So, should we change the location of this jewel now that the remains have been found some 50-plus miles from the location the ship was originally thought to go down?

Given where some of the jewels are being placed I think a 50 mile radius is close :)
This "original" HMS Victory is currently under attack from some guys from a biggish country over the pond. No doubt it will end up in the big warehouse the US keep the Ark of the Covenant etc - we'll need Indiana to place the jewel then ;yes

Lol, bit confusing having 2 HMS Victorys :)
The one where the Jewel is, in Portsmouth Harbour, is the more famous one and the oldest warship still in commission - and terrible to walk around on if you are tall -
I went aboard her a few times as a kid and I still wonder if all Naval officers had to be short to get to work on a ship of the line - My parents had to duck to get to certain places, and they are both short. :D
