17th Century shipwrecks in the Caribbean

I have met someone who is interested in shipwrecks in the Caribbean, especially those near Grenada. One idea that I had was to look at William Laird Clowes' The Royal Navy: A History From the Earliest Times to the Present. The seven volume book is a treasure, but I get exasperated with the first two volumes. Only towards the end of the second volume does the coverage get to where it should have been.
