I need your Ideas

[billcburr]

What do you people think about this
I have a friend that wants to trade a new whites surfmaster 2 pi for a new sand shark that I own
thanks bill

 

[Smoogle]

my 20c - he wants your shark for the same reasons why you should be keeping / swinging it

 

[artzstuff1]

do not trade sir,,,,,,

thank you,,,

It would be a great deal for him.

 

[Sandman]

It would be foolish to trade for the White's when the Sand Shark is the better detector.

I wouldn't see any deference there both all metal.

First thing, the Surfmaster II is not a PI, it is a VLF.

I wouldn't see any deference there both all metal.

If you've used them you would see a big difference. A White's PI comes with either a diver coil that makes it tough to swing on dry sand, or a standard coil that wants to float in the water. I've never tried a Dual Field so I can't comment on that one.

Depthwise I'd give the edge to White's. I much prefer the Sand Shark though, the threshold stays very steady in the waves here. Can't say the same for the White's.

 

[Smudge]

If his machine functions as well as or better than yours, why would he offer a trade?

That alone would make me pause.

I would worry that he doesn't know what he's selling you. The Whites Surfmaster II is a Whites Classic in the waterproof case of the Whites P.I. So better for freshwater where you have more need for some discrimination.

Could be the Surfmaster P.I. version 2 but then he should be calling it a Surfmaster Pro.

I think I would keep the Sand Shark.
