You could almost pay for your vacation with that haul!

Very nice. You are lucky. Which cruise line did you use? I took my surfmaster on a Disney cruise in 2001 and used it for about an hour at Castaway Cay before they threw me out. Apparently I was the first (and only) person to try to detect there. The island manager, and Disney, said that it's not allowed and never will be allowed. I didn't find anything, except 58 cents US and 10 cents Bahamas. Not even junk. It was unbelievably clean. They did tell me that the island manager has an underwater detector that he uses to find "reported" missing jewelry so they don't have to claim it on their insurance. Their biggest fear was that I'd find some jewelry that their insurance had paid for and they'd have to reimburse the insurance company. It was weird and frustrating. I was told later that I created more traffic on their radios and back to Disney in Orlando than they have ever heard before. That's why I got an hour in, it took them that long to figure out what I was doing and if it was allowed. I complained to Disney about it, but never heard a thing from them. They did try to tell me that it was illegal to detect in the Bahamas, but I didn't buy it.

I went to The Bahamas with Royal Caribbeans.It is no problem for hunting on The Bahamas.Only Disney cruises not allowed hunting on the beach.
They are #@!$%#@!s.If you have to go on the private island you have to ask for permission. Now Coco Cay is private,the Royal Caribbeans got The island for 20 years.I ask for permission,almost every body on the ship say go,so i did.They wish me good luck and i go to the beach.
