    bronze underwater

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to detect nonferrous metals on a tow behind?
    Sorry i am new to this I have a magnetron. But looking for bronze it is no real help.
    What do I need?

    how deep ?
    jw fishers has a pulse 12 that detects all metal from a tow behind fish
    I use jw fishers 4' foot coil and tow it behind my inflateable boat. I have a bulkhead fitting on my pulse 8x metal detector it works great.

    You have the exact set up I am looking into for finding a shipment of copper that went to the bottom in the mid 1800s. If you don't mind, could you tell me how deep can this set up penetrate sand?

    Re: bronze underwater

    my main search is in about 24 foot of water. Penetration could be the biggest problem. Any thing that sits 300 years on the bottom of the ocean here develops a lot of coral rock.

    On suggestion of another member here I am looking at the Pulse Star II

    Re: bronze underwater

    I bought a large coil PI detector years ago from A & S metal detector in California. Pulse 2000. It was $695. Very deep, but not waterproof box. I was thinking of putting the coil on a UW PI. And a longer coil cable. I assume they are still in business. It will go at least 6' on a beer can though. I assume all the large 1 meter coils will do this.
