  1. Nice saving the turtle. Dogs can be a problem sometimes. I've never had one come at while detecting.

    I used to ride my bicycle 20 miles a day and more on the weekends. Sometimes a big dog would come running at me and I would jump off on the other side of the bike and keep it between me and dog. It's a little scarry have a big dog coming at you on a bike. Other times little dogs will be pulling on the end of my pants and I would be laughing at them.

  2. I don't know how well the Orx it is on an ocean beach. The Legend will work great on an ocean. They are both great on tiny gold and go deep on gold rings.

    The Orx is very light. The 9" hf coil sweeps thru the water nice. I tested it on a small 14k gold ring buried in the sand and it was hitting at 14". I didn't try deeper. I haven't noticed false hits in iron areas with it either.

    The Legend 11" coil will be harder to sweep in the water but there is the 6x9.5 and 9x11 coils that will sweep better in the water. I haven't tested this one on a gold ring in the sand. I will test it this spring. I expect it to hit deep on gold rings too.

    They will both work very well water hunting.
