Have never done it, but it certainly merits some further investigation. In the event you do, keep us posted OBn.

You would need to waterproof the whole thing. Is it waterproof?

Waterproof connectors on the coil wire of the Excalibur's has proven to be problematic and adding another one to accomidate the amp would just double the problems with them.
I dont see it as a workable option on an Excalibur detector unless you keep it dry.

If you do not plan on taking it in the water said it did not work well in the water. The best thing may be to just get a used sovereign to work the tide line and the amp on it.
May be just about as cheap and a lot less work.
