will it wash up

[frieguy]

about 4 days ago I was out at the beach that had a swimming area so I was walking that area seeing if I could find anything more than some pull tabs and beer caps. there was a woman snorkling out in the swiming area that was sectioned off from the rest of the ocean. after awhile she came up to me and asked if I had found a ring and I let her know that I had not found one. she smiled and said good, so with that response I had to ask her if she had lost one and she did the day before.

she did not ask that I contact her if I ever found one..... so I feel less guilt about wanting to find it now :P . I was just wondering if anyone knew about how long it would take for a ring to wash up if it didn't head out to the ocean. there are little patches of plant life in the water so it could become tangled in that aswell. but if it managed to break for shore and not get tangled how long would it take. tides are kinda strong here, I live in guam. if anyone is able to help that would be cool if not I will still look for it anyway. thanks fryguy

It won't wash up, it will stay where she lost it.
Get yourself a water detector and go get it.
I know a guy who goes to Guam once a year
He finds enough Platinum and Gold to pay all his
expenses for the whole year.

do you know about what range in $ a water detector might cost?
I am using a bounty hunter tracker IV, its my first detector and seems like a good one for beginners. but I feel that I have gotten to know how to use it pretty well, its a motion detector. I have gotten to the point where I can dig right on top of what I am looking for.
anyway its supposed to be able to have the coil and everthing else up to the box submergable but as soon as that box goes under its no good to me anymore so I don't feel comfortable going into the water with it because I am Mr butterfingers I am guessing that a sifter would work best in the water as well, anyways if ya don't reply then thanks for the info you have given me so far
