Lake hunt surprise largie and barber

[Mark kus]

I was out on my local lake Detecting with the manticore and hit one of the islands a swimming area and hit the large cent 1845 which was a big surprise pretty crisp details to then a trip to the upper end to above sandy spot well the first signal was deep 12-14” it was a barber dime 1903 lots of assorted lures clad change no jewelry yet the silver Rosie was from a baseball diamond at local school don’t ever pass up a baseball diamond I’ve done well in the clay area …
The photo of my skiff was the nice sandy area in front of the cottage this lake is either sand mud or all rocks sand is hard to find on it .

Yes I do fish with it thanks it’s a 15’9” stonington skiff I have a 1993 25 evinrude goes about 28 mph very wide dry stable hull I get lots of comments I love the simplicity of it I do a lot of saltwater fishing inshore so it’s perfect for that …

I have an old 17' 1958 Lonestar with original 35 evenrude on it.
Motor locked up from sitting .
Been parked a few years.
Have to replace windshield and frame.
Know where I can get parts ?
Points, condenser and fuel pump.
Pretty sure I can get the motor free without problems.
