Look what the tide's washed in, maties! Volvo Car Corporation sent seven
international finalists in its global, multi-media treasure hunt for the
pirate-themed Volvo XC90 V8 to the Bahamas to unearth the buried
treasure of a vehicle worth more than $82,000. The seven wanna-be
pirates, including two women and five men, scoured the islands by sea,
land and air in a dramatic search for the prize.
Hailing from such locales as Newnan, Georgia and Trieben, Austria, the
finalists --three Americans and one each from Japan, United Kingdom,
Spain and Austria -- were flown to an undisclosed location on August 6.
Once there, they
competed in a historic race, frantically deciphering clues that led them
closer to the exact location
of the buried Volvo. The first to find it, kept it! Who was the winner?
that is just stupid the comany would lose so much money but the challangewas cool and who would give their time up just to look for a car on a island

kinda ridiculous to go through the process of actually burying the car. either make him actually dig it out, or dont hide the actual thing. it would save a bunch of money, so they can do more hunts in the future.
