	You can see that the site of the Queen Anne's Revenge is only about 1.5 miles from the coastline at the Beaufort Inlet. The press covering the recovery efforts included Reuters, NY Times, CNN, Discovery Channel, Washington Post and the major regional newspapers and TV stations.
This is what the press saw that day, and is fairly typical of each days recovery efforts. The two small white boats are dive boats, the larger boat is has a boom to pull heavy objects off the ocean floor.
