I think you sucked something up there!

I think you sucked something up there!

thats the rock jam unplugging system.
It's a on board unit hopping it will increase the value

Very nice looking dredge!

How well did it catch the fine gold when you had it out?

 

[G1sammons]

It alway does great but needs a box tender always !
The larger rocks hang in the sluice ...

Does it include the triton water heater and did you mount the pressure washer for a blaster. If so I am thinking well north of 10 grand. I am anxious to see some video of this monster running and some results

I'd say yes on the heater .. It has a blaster nozzle but the pressure washer I just set it on the deck ... It was too powerful it will work but it's massive overkill unless your
Cutting into cemented gravels or something like that.. It's very difficult to control it but it can be done...


But wow never thought it would that high... 10 k wow ... Might have too sell it now

Sorry, but I don't agree with the $10K estimate. A current 4" can be had for $2000 - $2500 used, and I have seen 6" dredges being offered for $5. If California re-establishes dredging, I can see you getting 10K in a flash as people have sold their gear off and will be looking to get back in fast. Otherwise it's too much dredge for most operators and most locations won't allow the use of anything that large. So there isn't enough demand for a premium price.

Sorry I'm just not much on the video camera. And didn't get much opertunity
Sat summertime to run it ... It was a rough year busy year at work and a lot of water cumming down the rivier .. Think it made it in the water 4 or 5 times.
Sure wish you would make the trip sometime oakview .. You could front end it and see just what she does ... I'd run the box for ya !

Those old Keene 6 inch triples are at a premium and this one is well equipped, cant imagine what it cost just for all those extra pontoons, a 24 hp honda, carpeting all those boxes, ghast 263, triton waterheater, ect, ect. Not exactly a Keene or Pro line stock 4 inch

Partner just bought a 4 inch Keene Mini, 6.5 honda, HP 400 proline pump, ran two weeks before the BAN. He already purchase a twin piston Thomas compressor, looks much like a Ghast. Just need to fab a new mount and get it in the water so we can attach... and level

 

[GrizzlyGremlin]

Ok 5 grand... I wana talk about your coon pup!!! Soooo cute!! He or she will be the best pet you can imagine until she goes into heat or if its a boy his nuts will start pumping test. And it will get aggressive and you must let it go. Adorable tho cherish it
