Awesome gold finds,how well is that machine on dry land and how much does it weigh.:thumbsup:
I have used it on the land several times and found quite a few old US coins in places that I know other people have searched and failed to pick coins from in between the trash. I believe it weighs the same as an Etrac but it is surprisingly well balanced and you can hunt for hours without the dreaded arm fatigue or a bungee cord set up.
It has slots built into the base of the handle for cords which I am sure comes in handy for people that do need to use a harness or bungee cord set up.
Cheers Gary

I think the weight on it was 5 lbs... a little heavier than the ET, but everyone is saying its VERY well balanced with the straight shaft design. Pssss hes also got those water headphone .... lucky dog. The only thing i could afford on it was a down load of the manual lol. Good hunt Gary.

Nice finds... judging by the visuals, methinks some NJ transplants lost their gold in Florida. ???:headbang: <-- That's the closest I could find to a fist pump.
