Looking for those who have used the Etrac at the beach for a while.

No, I'm not getting a CTX

How does your Etrac hold up to the beach/salt water spray? Have you had any issues with corrosion?

I plan on using a sun ray display cover for the box and a protective cover that covers the arm rest/battery area.

Wondering how your mileage has been.

Thanks!

I use one there all the time without an issue....probably 300 hours now. I've tried it with and without a display cover. The cover helps keep the sand off the keypad and from getting scratches on the screen but it's a pain to see through in the bright sunshine. I also have the grip and battery tube cover which I do leave on there all the time. If you wade, get a tether so you don't accidentally drop the thing in the surf. I use the 15" WOT coil most of the time, and with it, the Detecting Buddy sling, which also makes a good tether.
