HELP - CAN ANYONE HELP FIND MY LOST WEDDING BAND??

Hi all,
A few days ago I dropped my platinum wedding band the wet sand/surf in the beach outside the Ritz Carlton hotel in Naples Florida at a darn work retreat (only been married two months). After hours of searching I had to give up. I am now back in CHICAGO... alas far away. The ring is heavy and probably sunk in with the rocks and shells. I had no metal detector. I can pinpoint right where I dropped it and I would pay well. The ring has engraving on the inside "XOXO B.A.R."

I dropped it right where the water meets the sand STRAIGHT OUT FROM A V-SHAPED FLAG POLE ON A WHITE BUILDING BY THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE RITZ (SOUTH STAIRCASE OUT TO THE BEACH).

Please let me know if this is the kind of thing anyone can do. It would mean a lot. Or if you know anyone who does this kind of thing...

Thanks! Call or email at any time with thought!

You might want to send a PM to Bigcypresshunter. He's near Naples, according to the members map.
I'm in Tampa and probably 3 hours away. If you absolutly can't find any one PM me and I will try to get down there.

Good Luck

I'd jump at the chance to help, but Alaska and Naples, Florida are 4900 miles apart. If you want to pay my gas and hotel bills, I can be there in about 9 days driving time. ;D

Good Luck! Hope the word gets out! Some guys here might try and post this on some other sites!
I would come over on my boat, but it won't hold enough gas to get there... Okinawa is a little far too!
