Sweet elephant, looks like a Hindu Ganesh?? Can't see it mounted on a boat however, but your guess is as good as mine.

Hopefully someone else will give an accurate ID on the object and its intended use.

Good Stuff :thumbsup:

Yes, but the Vader was found buried in the dry sand. Our lakes are really low, so it might have been lost in the water at some point.

Not sure if you mean the setting on the detector or the setting in which they were found. I was in the shallow water and sand along a lake. I think it was set to discriminate out 40 and down. I dug most everything unless I could tell for sure that it was total junk.
