schoolofhardNox Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I knew you could do it ? Treasure at last. Congrats on the Silver with the Nox. But before you get a camera, get some boots man.? It is cold when you get caught in a wave this time of year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if someone from Nu Hamshuh can't understand his accent, imagine how the rest of us struggle! Heck, if it weren't for the TID report I would have had no idea what a qwaatah was. Sailor Man (does that translate?), good on you for letting that girl participate and giving her a souvenir. Those kinds of things can make a positive impression for life. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvpopeye Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 Thank ya , thank ya very much , I thank ya and Priscilla thanks ya too... Now the jinx is broken I'll hit the OOB bet it was crowded too .(Old Orchard Beach) Billions of square feet to cover there ! Decipherin' my accent writing is a hunt in itself I guess.? You guys ,don't be pickin' on Badger fer not knowin' zackly what I wuz sayin'. Them fella's in New Hampstah ain't used ta us gull drool downta the coast , they only got 15 miles of it dontchyaknowww ! (and BTW , it's almost all beach !) The dime was probably there way before this trip , just didn't cover that exact spot yet is all ! I'm convinced there could be a few more, the beach is a mile long>>>>>>>>>>>>>and timing the negative tides when the park is open AND not crowded Gotta go by the rules or NO DETECTING !!!!!! It's a State Park. Makes days like this a rare treat. BUT they don't give out very many passes , so It's usually ALL MINE ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR the recovery 3 and inching along probably didn't hurt either. The sand doesn't get stripped or filled in too much though for some reason ? Between the mouths of two rivers , one of which keeps having some big things called DDG 1000 go by. https://www.navy.mil/Resources/Fact-Files/Display-FactFiles/Article/2391800/destroyers-ddg-1000/ (I sometimes wonder what might have been lost overboard as they go by ???)? Yup the kids are fun ,,,, sometimes , mom apologized for the kid's interest ! No Problemo lady . I'll need to apologize to her when she hears "ALL I want for christmas is a GPX 6000" It's been 12 years since my last fix on the pirate ship ......kinda missed it . What can I say ? YW MineLab THAT will be a detector sale some day ! I knew that when she said "treasure" !! yup yup. Plow guy is here ! I'M FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE ! Bazeenia! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're way up there? Most people would call that mid coast, not south coast. South coast usually means south of Portland. Mid coast is Portland to Bar Harbor. Downeast is Bar Harbor to Lubec. I've spent a lot of time cruising along all three of Maines coasts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvpopeye Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 I've sometimes wondered if those terms were created by the chamber of commerce LOL "There are no rules , it's more like guidelines" The Lobbie boats are the real deciders out there ! Kennebec and Penobscott rivers are the natural dividers , "close enough for gov work" arrrrr That beach is just north of the Kennebec ,,but I live south of it closer to Beans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvpopeye Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 How close to Hampton are you ? I have a cousin in Kittery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger-NH Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I'm closer to Maine than Hampton. I grew up on the Piscataqua looking over to Eliot. In '69 my parents moved to the other side of town near Great Bay. That's where I live today. I'm 65 now. Parents have been gone many years. I know Kittery well.

Badger-NH Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 The Basin in Phippsburg was one of my favorite anchorages. I explored and detected that area for years. Sold my last sailboat in 2009 and took up surfing in 2013. Just started wing foiling last fall. I still detect when I can. Finding stuff is a lot more of a challenge now than it was 20 years ago.
