little question:)

[aditochi]

hello i`ve been reading this forum for a few years. wanna buy a detector...a excal. that is..and i have a question...how fast a ring would sink in the sand, beyond reaching capabilities of excal? i`m from the Black Sea.. a ring would sink slower in a sea...rather than a ocean...i think it would because in the sea the waves will be much smaller and a sea has very very small tide less than a meter...sorry for massacrating the language...hope you understand me

A ring will keep sinking until it hits a hard/ denser surface Example (clay). How fast does depend on movement (waves). It only takes one or two tides to put a ring out of reach in and ocean. I would guess a week or two? If there is a storm the ring may get redeposited on dry land again and start the process all over again. If you can get someone with a PI machine, they are much deeper.

Just my 2 cents

Try this, take a ring, tie it to spool of dental floss and drop it on the wet sand as the edge of the water, wait 1 hour and recover it and see how far it sank in just one hour.

PS, don't lose the ring................

I guess I never though about how fast a ring would sink. I know sometime it will take me 3 or 4 scoops before I fine the item I am looking for....matt
