Probably not a bad price for either. I would go with the Tesoro personally, but if you feel you just have to have a screen then might not be for you.

I would go with the Tesoro Vaquero and skip the Garrett.

I agree. Vaquero is a great machine, easier to use than its big brother, the Tejon and depth must not be underestimated as you can hypertune and squeeze out even more.

 

[blakeifitz]

so the general consensus is the Tesoro lol

 

[blakeifitz]

why not the garret just wondering?

I started with a Vaquero and moved in the water with a surf PI, my wife now uses the Tesoro and has a great time. It's very light and finds things deep, just be prepared to dig a lot of stuff.

Tesoro definitely. I was so impressed with my Compadre that I bought a Vaquero as well and I've never looked back!
