I have a couple more of these coming, fast, really lightweight, small in size and perfect for us "older" folks who still have the competitive spirit who now and then need to sit in a lawn chair.
Besides right now on sale at $23.99. Cheap thrills. Have the perfect pond, just needs a set of buoys to set up a race course next year.

It's a big change from running the large gas boats a bunch of years ago.



DeepTech Vista X with 3 search coils.
Works for me

I was told by a hard core liberal acquaintance that a Christmas tree is a white pagan symbol of capitalist commercialism,,,,,,so we won't have one this year.

Hope to get a call from our adoption agency case worker letting us know everything is ready to go but it's probably not likely to happen til after the new year.

My wife is getting me 2 Equinox 800’s, big and small coil and the 35 pin pointer. Oh the second Equinox is when my brother comes to visit or for a friend to use.
All I want for Christmas is . . . . . . .

Wish List . . .

I like Keith's idea, a new truck would certainly be welcomed. How about some excellent permissions for next year?

I have always wanted to do some Nugget hunting. I can sell several less used detectors and have Santa drop off a GPX of some sort. smileys with beer

I've been drooling all year over the new Henry model H018-410 lever action 410 shotguns. Wouldn't mind seeing one of those show up.

Treadmill. Why is it so easy to spend $1k on a detector but not other things? I'd use more than a detector but cant seem to stomach the cost. lol

My wife brought home one of those elliptical exercise machines...not a cheap one but a good one. I came home from work and saw it sitting in the living room. I came in and promptly took my hat off and put it on top of one of the handles. She said "hey that don't go there" and I said...I give it 2 weeks tops and all this thing is gonna be used for is a hat and coat rack". I got a mean look for sure. She used it every day for about a week. Then she missed a day. That day led to another. And it was a good hat and coat rack for years until she gave it away.

But I know exactly what ya mean. I had to break down and buy a gun safe...and if you have ever priced those suckers, you know they aren't cheap if you get a decent one. Compared to detectors though...they are about the same price as a top of the line one. The day the Equinox was announced, I was ready to drop $800 on the spot. Didn't prepay but I did pre order one that same day. The day I went to buy a safe....it took all day and I still nearly talked myself out of it. Too expensive. Haha.
