Hello people, I don't post here, but check this site often. Matter' fact, this is my 1st post. I like the fact there is a Bounty Hunter forum. I might use my Sovereign GT on the beach, but I still take out my Tracker IV to other areas. The place I work at rented out a Quick Draw II to someone the other day because he lost his wedding ring while fishing in the ocean surf. I thought "oh no, he's never gonna find it with that." He didn't find his ring (lost it the day before a recent nor'easter, didn't search until it had passed), but did find a lot of other stuff. Seemed like he had fun too. I would never have expected a QDII would be able to find stuff on the beach, but it turns out if you really must, it will do it!
