Hey Mucky,
Without going into specifics (and I do appreciate the offer to join you!) can you tell us your general area? I'm 10 minutes from the water just south of Boston and I have a feeling there is some good stuff in the harbors near me. There was also a thriving shipbuilding trade in the late 17th to18th century on a local river that may offer some good sites. I'm just not sure how to access them. Maybe by boat. What kind of territory are you hunting? I'm just thinking there will be absolute loads of large iron wherever the good stuff may lie. Thanks for any advice. I'm seriously considering water hunting right now, because we still have a lot of snow in our fields and yards.

Well I'm hunting a beach along the hudson river, that was used during the hay day for the major industry in the area from 1700's to the 1930's. When ships carted off the product to NYC they used refuse from the sewer washouts, Excavation digs, etc for balast And they dumped their ballast at this beach. My advice to you is, if you see surface stuff like broken bottles, etc..dig away
