We had a chance to find some amazing ship wrecks of the coast of Sint Maarten.
We also came across some of the wreckage of the HMS Proselyte which was built in 1770 and sank in 1801.
Heres some history on it.
HMS Proselyte was a 32-gun Royal Navy fifth-rate frigate. She was the former Dutch 36-gun frigate Jason, built in 1770 at Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Her crew mutinied and turned her over to the British in 1796. She then served the Royal Navy until she wrecked in 1801.
