cdv1, great video!! The manatees seemed to be pretty curious of what you guys were doing. They were the treasure you were after!!

It's possible with so many people digging up the sand something smelled delicious and they came to investigate.

Very cool video, they really are huge mammals! If those were sharks I'd be out of the water in a second!

Those Manatees appear to be groupies.
Grooving out on the multivariable tones from the Excaliburs!
Party On!


Group hunt yesterday to a spot that had a huge amount of bottle caps, everyone got their fair share of them too! Highlight of the trip was a group (herd, flock, gaggle?) of Manatees and I just happened to have my GoPro on me and actually turned it on!

Up close and personal with some Manatees

You were close. There called a "Pod" also a herd. That's a whole family. COOL! Guess they got everyone excited? Just think of all the caps you won't find next time. :icon_scratch: :icon_scratch:

Great video... I wonder if they were attracted to the signals sent from your detector?? Amazing that the one without a tail could swim with the rest of the group.... Nice going.. Papa
