They make covers for just about any detector so hunting the rain really isn't an issue anymore. Now if you need it to be a water machine, that's a different story. There are only a few that have a target ID and are waterproof.

Been using the Surfmaster PI for 10 years. Have found everything from boat anchors over 2' down to diamond rings at 10" with a lot of coin finds throughn in. You can probably find a good one used in the classifieds here or E Bay for a very reasonable price. Frank

I'd like to pick up a detector I can use in inclimate weather & beach (fresh water). I know the most popular suggestion would be the At Pro. I'm thinking Whites Beach Hunter 300 but open to other US made detectors.
How is the BH300 as a coin hunter on land?
There are much better choices for a land machine. If you want a meter, the Tiger Shark is not for you either. Both are good machines but more targeted for water use than land. The At Gold would be a better choice for land and water if you want a meter. Also the higher end detectors like the Minelab CTX 3030 have those features too.

The CTX 3030 earphones are not waterproof. Frank hand print-2_edited-5.jpg
