This magnetism question was still making Bette’s head spin, literally; so much so that she had spent a few hours at the local library in Alderney researching their next dive: HMS Association.
And she had been right.
A compass problem had sunk the ‘Association’. British Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovell had ran his ship and three others, onto the rocks of the Scilly Isles one foggy night in 1707. Iron Cannons most certainly caused the wreck – they had interfered with the accuracy of the ships’ compasses, meaning that they had never reliably pointed North.
Tina was shuffling through a few pictures Bette had copied from some of the books about the salvage of the ‘Association’ in the 1960’s she had perused in the Old Library. Back then, teams had combed the Gilstone area of the Western Rocks, a group of uninhabited islands and rocks in the south–western part of the Isles of Scilly really truly famous, aside their current ornithological importance, for having brought numerous ships to their watery demise.
Tina was studying the intricate design of the pieces they had brought back with particular interest. Bette could tell how the blonde was memorising the details of each piece to try as best she could to replicate some of them in her diving logs.
Captivating the marine biologist, at the moment, were the playful dolphins shaped lifting loops of one of three cannons which had been salvaged at the time.
The seabed back then had had plenty to offer. Divers had found a cave so small that they had had to unhook their air tanks and push them in front of them as they had explored. Their squirming effort had been handsomely rewarded however, when they had discovered a vast carpet of gold and silver coins. But the question remained in Bette’s head; Had they truly found everything? Would she find gold in the ‘Association’ Cannons?
She could see the Islands in the distance, it wouldn’t be long before they reached Tresco, the second-biggest island of the Isles of Scilly. Jagged rocks and ledges surrounded the Scillies and strong winds often whipped the sea into a foam like froth on a milkshake. She was relieved to see however that the sea today was dead calm.

Hi Kins,
So glad to see this story! It will take some time to read it and i will leave a comment after i finish.
Hi, welcom back, Kins!
Thank you for finished this story! Ok, now i’m going to read it.
Hi, Kins
Oh my God, Kins, welcome back, after almost 2 years, it’s been a long time, but reading the whole story now I feel, the wait was worth.
You have given us a quite wonderful and interesting story full of adventures and riddles and full of love of my favorite couple Bette and Tina.
You ended the story in a very good way, but I feel as if I want to know more about them, if Bette gets the funding for her project in Mexico, the wedding, their partnership, what Tina does for a job… and many more things.
I hope we could read more new beautiful stories from you; I like very much your style.
Thank you very much and please, post other TIBETTE stories

Ok, i read again this story, this time the whole and i’m ready to leave another comment.
First – thank you again for finish the story.
Second – happy to see happy final -treasure was found, bitch Kelly got lost. And i must say i like how you got rid from her – like in life we can say with 100% probability what happened – or she sank or she was killed by shark.
Third – i like how you described Bette and Tina and love between them. I like it in all your stories (maybe with one exception – in Frozen beginnings i don’t like your Bette during the story, but in final she corrected :) )
So, welcome back and maybe in the future we can see another great story from you? I really hope so.
Hi Kins,
Really enjoyed the read, thank you so much.
A great Story and I loved reading it in one post. As an English Lady I really enjoyed your explanation of Cricket!
I would love it if you would now consider a Sequel with these two characters.
Thanks again for posting.

Welcom back, Kins!
I was a silent reader a long time, but after you finished this story i must register to say – “Thank you for fantastic story! And i hope this story won’t be your last on this site!”
Totaly agree with MissOne – i hope this story won’t be the last from you too!
Hi Kins,
You took us trough a incredible journey! Full of adventures, little clues i tried to catch to find the treasure, the background on the history of those ships and of course the love between Bette & Tina.
I really hope you will continu with a sequel or a new story.
Thank you so much for posting the whole story after two long years!
In-cre-di-ble! Kins, thank you so much for returning to this story and for giving us such a glorious and sweet ending. You’re such a talented writer. What a wonderful plot with astonishing details to the treasure hunt.
I second the previous comments and hope you’ll find the inspiration (and time) to work on a sequel. Maybe Bette’s project in Mexico with a twist with some unexpected traces of a legendary Aztec treasure ;)
Well ive read it at last.So pleased you managed to finish this story.I know how long it was in conception and all the research you did for its authenticity.
