Although all metal detector manufacturers do their darnedest to water proof their water machines, time has a way of making minute changes on detectors, sometimes to the point where they will eventually take on water. Detectors get banked around, seals dry, rubber breaks down, UV rays create havoc on most materials and moving parts can eventually wear out. These are also compromised by dissolved salt in the water and sediment finding little spaces to hide and plug things up. The best example is the lower and upper rod seizing at the end of the summer, due to people not washing down the detector after a hunt.
Showering with a friend might save you $$$, but showering with your detector will keep you in the game......making $$$
