I swing the T2's cousin, the F75LTD. Been using it for almost 3 years. The T2 has an iron range of 1 to 40 where the F75 is 1-15. I am a coinshooter and was ready to by a T2SE, but ran into a great deal on the Fisher. What are you swinging now? Just know that there are counterfeit T2's out there now so I'd by from a reputable dealer. When I was shopping in late 2014 the T2 was $799 and have since dropped to $499.
I am on my second T2 ltd. Left the hobby a while back and got rid of the first T2 ltd. Not sure which was the bigger mistake. Anyway, the T2 Ltd is just awesome. Pair it up with the 5" coil at a park/tot-lot and you better be prepared to dig. My first time out with the 5" coil produced a ring in an area that had been searched with some of my previous machines. Also dug a lot of clad. Best thing about the T2 is the weight, or should I say, the lack of it. I can swing that T2 all day. You made a wise choice. Good luck and Happy Hunting

If you are asking about a salt water beach in the dry sand it will work ok.
In the wet salt sand/water like any other single freq. machine the T2 will struggle & false ...causing you to turn down the sensitivity and losing depth.
