Megalodon was stolen from me in September 2018.
Sold illegally at auction in 2019 without authorization or paperwork.
The buyer loaned it to his son who stole it from his father.
Falsely claiming it sunk at his friends dock. He died in 2024
A pair of drug dealers then stolen the Megalodon.
Drug dealers: YUNIEL O PUENTE GONZALEZ,
and VANESSA DE LA TORRE
It broke anchor and drifted into a seawall.
Again broke anchor and drifted into a pipeline.
Vanessa claimed it was their boat but they want nothing to do with it.
She paid to have it towed out into Biscayne Bay.
It was anchored ~sideways~ resulting in waves sinking it.
I was contacted by FL Fish & Wildlife officer Dunn.
Notified that he can't find any info on the boat except for me.
I explained how it was stolen in 2018.
Had to prove it was mine and not the auction guys.
Told I need a Judge to rule Megalodon is mine?!
I said, sure but they didn't need a judge to steal it from me in 2018?!
Introduced myself to the gentalman who bought her at auction.
He explained his departed son claimed she sank 2 years ago.
He agreed his son had no authoirty to take, or loan the boat to anyone.
I have salvaged the sunken Megalogon and started a fundraiser to restore her!
