I wish I had a picture of all that my 1280X has found. No doubt the most profitable machine I've ever had. My only complaint would be that it stinks in salt water. In fresh water, I could not even describe how much I love that thing. It's almost 15 years old now and still finds the lions share of my treasure. Good luck and try not to wear it out! HH! Chris
 

8) wont EVER use it in salt water-just the good old Great Lakes and surrounding country. 8) ;D
