Nautilus machines

[notimetowait4u]

Hi group,

Looking to buy a new machine and have done a great deal of research. Found it interesting that nautilus seems to be one of the best machines out there, but little is ever said about it. If anybody has some feedback, positive, or negative, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick

I think the reason why, is... the machine looks to unbalance and heavy.That gets old really quick.
it is more of a relic machine. At 14 kHz, good for nugget hunting too.But I would have to go with a minelab GT; from wading in beach water to nugget hunting operating at 1-25 kHz you can't go wrong. Call the military and ask what detector they use and trust :MINELAB!

You may be right but some guy on e-bay sold a whole bunch of whites XLT's that the military had used to
clean up a firing range or some such .

Yep, due to reduction in personnel, the Military did indeed unload a bunch of XLT's. It seemed they didn't find unexploded ordinance very well.

A good machine in low to moderate minerals, but I understand they fall behind other brands in more mineralized soils.

those xlt were being used to clean up one of the Hawaiian islans that were used for practice bombing
