TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Seafarer Exploration Corp. (OTCQB: SFRX), a company focused on the archaeologically-sensitive exploration, documentation and recovery of historic shipwrecks with an emphasis on recovering treasure and understanding and documenting historical events surrounding shipwrecks, is pleased to announce they have finalized an agreement with Heartland Treasure Quest LLC (HTQ) for a third treasure site. HTQ has surveyed, explored, and researched the site and historical archives for over a decade. Seafarer will now start the application process for another salvage permit.

Kyle Kennedy, CEO of Seafarer, stated, "We are continuing our plans of expansion to build shareholder value and increase our probabilities of success. We want to continue to emphasize the academic importance of excellent archaeology and reporting with the projects we have been given the responsibility to complete.  And, in line with that, we wish to thank the archaeologists and biologists at HTQ for their commitment to professional standards. Seafarer and the Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research are committed to the very highest professional archaeological standards. Seafarer is now in the research stage for future wreck sites number 4 and 5."

Thomas Funk, Project Archaeologist, commented "We are happy to be partnered with Seafarer, a company that has continually demonstrated a commitment to historical documentation and achieving the highest environmental standards and archaeological conservation of our state history." Scott Herber, Biologist for HTQ, added "We have gathered years of information from exploring and researching the archives and are ready to complete the final chapter of this ship's final voyage."

Seafarer is also pleased to announce their much improved website (www.seafarercorp.com) has been fully redesigned, is back online and will be updated continually as progress and developments warrant.

Seafarer is currently pursuing other projects and wreck sites and would like to extend an invitation to anyone who might have discovered a wreck site or something of historical importance to contact us.
