Ok so the wife and i are really happy with her Mojave, but i am tired of digging her holes................. we are thinking of adding a second detector to the quiver, and want one that will perform well on our OBX beaches. Dry sand mostly, but also want one capable of hitting the wet sand on occasion. Price must be below $ 400 dollars...........ok experienced members, what are your recommendations?

There is nothing sold by Minelab for $450 or less that will work well on wet salt sand. Wet salt sand requires a special detector that can handle the salt mineralization.
