Lost wedding band, Found wedding band under floating waterpark!
Gotta call from Rachel who is a local here in Key West.
She and her friends were having a blast jumping in and out of the water when she climbed back up onto the float she noticed right away that her solder 2 ring platinum band fell off.
After speaking to Rachel and getting the details. The ring was lost in 10’ of water. Not easy to move around under a Waterpark with my battery powered Blu3 nomad hookah system. So I decided to rent some tanks/gear to be able to freely swim and hunt under the float.
Because this float is owned by Furry water adventures . We had permission to go when they closed in the afternoon. So I took my boat to the floating park. Got my gear on and went in the water.
As I’m underwater making my way over to the area she thought it was lost at. I Swung my detector back and forth picking up a target or two. As I get under the area I notice to my left the ring sitting on the sand . I knew right away it was her ring because it was lost the day before and it was soldered together sitting right on top of sand. Right where she said she thought it had came off at.
It’s always an amazing feeling to see how grateful and appreciative the people get when they see their lost keepsakes that they thought was lost forever back in their hands.
Got a message from Leah asking for help in locating a friends wedding band at Sea Girt beach. I told her to get me as much information about it and i’ll head right down. While driving to the beach I got a call from Inger the woman who lost the ring, she is visiting from Norway. She was able to give me a pretty good idea as to where to look for it. It seems while enjoying the day at the beach she put her jewelry in the cup holder on her beach chair. When it was time to leave she started putting it back on and started to gather stuff up and didn’t get the chance to put her ring back on yet. Not knowing this her son went and folded up the chair and the ring went flying into the sand. Everyone started to look for it but didn’t have any luck. I got to the beach and she told me about where to look and to look for the holes they dug and the dig marks looking for it. Sure enough I saw where they were sitting and digging and after about 10 minutes I had her ring in the scoop. I called her to tell her the good news and made arrangements to meet up with her the next day. A happy ending for all.
Andrew called asking about locating his wedding ring he lost in the bay the night before. We talked for a while and he was positive of the location the ring popped of while catching a football. He said it was in chest deep water, and he had pictures of exactly when it came off. I met him at the house a few hours later, got my gear together, and we walked out to the spot. Well, the water was quite rougher and deeper than it was the prior evening, but we continued the search with no luck, as he stood in the exact spot he said it flew off. After 2 hours we threw in the towel, and decided to resume searching in the morning at low tide. I brought my weight belt to hold me down, and a buoy to mark the spot. After about an hour I got a strong signal that turned out to be his ring. Turns out it was closer to chin/shoulder deep where it was lost, and low tide with no boat traffic allowed me to get his ring in my scoop in roughly 5′ of water. Definitely one of the more challenging recoveries, due to the water depth, and not being able to see my equipment on the bottom. Andrew and his wife were totally amazed.
