If I lived on the coast, I'd buy it from you today. Sadly I have no dock for it, and wouldnt waste the money to have it hauled half-way across the US just to sit in a pond. Oh well, good luck on your sale.

The deepest I have been with it is about 50 ft, I haven't searched deep here much. No bottom time, if I found a deep wreck I might have a look see but no luck yet?

WOW, is the Sand Shark one of your favorite detectors you use. I think about buying one and I have to decide between the Sand Shark and the Minelab Excalibur II - do which detector would you dent?

Everyone has their favorites, but with a lifetime warranty, and great sensitivity, the Sand Shark is a no-brainer for me. I love mine.

I love my sand shark, but I'm looking for a Excalibur to have as well for those beaches with lots of iron pieces everywhere...

The best advice I can give you is that I sent my SS to the factory ( my fault) and they treated me like a king. ......End of story for me!!

Why not put up a sign[tel. number] at the docks saying that you retrieve lobster gear and get these boys thinking next time they lose gear. Then they pay you or trade and you get to check that area out for free and possibly get a wreck. Maybe even work out a deal with a fisherman to split what's found if you two check out all his hangs together. Here's something to think about! Fisherman have different types of gear that they set. These fisherman are pressured here with regulations. For the most part the fish know where protection is and the fisherman know where the fish are going. How many stories have you heard about fisherman's gear all over wrecks??? When you look at wrecks. Theirs always tons of fish on it. Food for bigger fish plus protection. So if you see a lot of pots in a area close together. Take numbers down and check it out when fisherman isn't around. You get the Idea and know better than I do about your area. Different bottom and fish. But it's pretty much the same every where. Your doing it right anyway. Just throwing out a couple of ideas to get you thinking. Never hurts!!

Boat sold, it's not coins and gold but the hard currency will hit the bank on Monday just the same.

Found it on the ocean, turned it into cash....a result.
