Fool's Gold (2008): The Francesca

The clip The Francesca from Fool's Gold (2008)

About the time Finn and I were ready to leave, we found this article...
...about a Spanish sailor who was rescued off a deserted island...
...after being shipwrecked for three years.
Off Topsail Cay?
Right. 1718.
Three years after the hurricane.
A Dutch frigate had come to grief on the shoals off of Topsail Cay...
...and while waiting for the tide to rise...
...they saw what they thought was an old man paddling out on a log.
Only he wasn't an old man. He was 21 years old.
Looked like Tom Hanks in that movie. What was that movie?
Um...
Cast Away.
Ha-ha.
Yes.
Ha-ha.
He told the Dutch captain his name was Raphael Serrano...
...of the tobacco ship Francesca.
Ha. As in mother of Sebastian.
Yes.
Exactly.
Now, he said...
...he had struck the same reef and sunk in just 30 feet of water.
Wow.
You guys must really like treasure.
Yes. I mean, it's very impressive...
...but it's still thin.
Oh, my God.
Only Francesca...
...she didn't sink off Topsail Cay.
She sank off the coast of Veracruz in 1708...
...with all hands, including her captain, Raphael Serrano.
Wait, I don't get it.
Neither did we.
Until we discovered the Francesca had been owned by the Vangor family.
