Tiger or CZ20 - Help

Hello all
Please help - stuck between choosing a CZ20, Tesoro Tiger & Excab 1000
I know most of you have probably answered such a question 100x - apolagies for asking you to do it again
Kind of leaning towards the Tiger due to price, but heave read that it struggles on small gold in salt water as does the CZ20
Is this true
I do inland 40%
fresh water 40%
salt water 20%
Areas: South Africa & Mozambique
Any advice would be greatly appeciated

The Tiger will be the best on everything except the salt water. Its AWESOME on small gold but does struggle in the wet sand in salt water.
The CZ-20 is a great detector for salt... but is stuck in the SALT mode and does not do well on small gold. I currently own both the Cz-20 and the Tiger and love them both.
The Excal is prolly the best compromise.... but its not as dependable as the others. Not as hot on small gold as the tiger... but will do alot better in the salt. Its not stuck in salt mode... so it will do better in the freshwater than the CZ-20... but not as good in the fresh as the Tiger.
They are all great machines for thier intended purposes... If I had to choose only one and money was no object and I was hunting both Salt water and inland I would prolly go for the Excal.Because its hotter on small gold than the CZ-20.
If I was not going to hunt the WET sand in a salt water area I would go with the Tiger Shark... It
would be my 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice for freshwater.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Reaney
I've been introduced the the HH Diver and looks like a good machine for the price - unfortunatley very few reports at this time
thinking serious of buying one
Thanks for the advice - much appreciated

and their all very satisfied with them. I just ordered a HH PI even though I'm probably 2 months from getting in the water.

Thanks ArtWI
This deciding stuff is absoluley stressing - Reckon I/m going with the HH Diver (price is important when paying in Rands)
If I don't decide now, I still be trying to decide by the time iron becomes a precious metal
Thanks all for the help
