Is there a waterproof pinpointed for saltwater ?

[Marylanddetctr]

I metal detect on river banks of the Chesapeake sometimes and it's hard digging with the sand caving in and oyster shell beds everywhere a pinpointer would help but is there a waterproof one that would work in saltwater ?

Check out Garrett's new Pro Pointer AT(?) It just came out and the difference from the standard issue is this one is Bright Orange with more options and waterproof to +10'. Great reviews...however it's only been out for about a month. Good Luck!

Garret's new waterproof pinpointer won't be released until February. They are on pre order right now.

If its waterproof, then its waterproof on saltwater too. You understand.

Sorry about that CA Gold Hunter....
I must have assumed they were out. I saw a special produced by Garrett (I'm assuming) that surprised 4 MD'ers before a hunt with the new PP. While their searches were filmed the PP's were put through a series of tests and all of them said positive things about the performance as well as the new programmable features of sensitivity along with vibrate mode vs audio mode. I know that I will be getting one and using my current Garrett as a back up. Went to Bart's sight this morning and they have them at 127.xx. Excited to grab one very soon!

Most hunters simply use a sand scoop for digging in sand and water. Scoop and recheck hole, scoop again until target is out of hole, and kick pile around until found.

I pre-orded one of these pinpointers from Kellyco, but they didn't take the money out of my Paypal account so I don't know why they are calling it a pre-order if they're not actually completing the order.

They can't charge your card until it ships that's the law. Unless it is a custom item being made for you.
BTW shipping looks to be around end of February to mid March.

If you want a good one now, get a Vibraprobe. It's an excellent quality, made in USA pin pointer that's waterproof to 100'

Certainly should be great for saltwater being PI and all -

I am impressed with their X-Pointer thus far
