 In January 2008, a US Federal Court in Tampa ordered Odyssey Marine to disclose details of the wreck site to the Spanish government and for both to return to court in March.During those proceedings, Odyssey Marine stated that its Black Swan treasure was recovered in the Atlantic approximately west of Portugal.That location would appear to rule out the "Merchant Royal" (which sank much further north in the Atlantic), and the "Mercedes" (which sank approximately off the Portuguese coast), and HMS "Sussex" (which sank inside the Strait of Gibraltar.)
