Heirloom Gold wedding band lost in Middle Branch Pond in Waterboro, Maine found with metal detector.

  • from Rockport (Maine, United States)

Recovery number 25! Colin and his friend overturned their canoe on Middle Branch Pond in Waterboro, ME. In the process Colin’s wedding ring which had been made and worn by his Grandfather who was a jeweler by trade was lost. Fellow Ringfinder Dennis Boothby had recommended Colin call me when it was determined that the ring was beyond the normal shallow water search range of less than 4 ft and required a diver. It took about a half hour to locate and I was able to recover the ring in about 6 feet of water after doing battle with the heavy vegetation of the lakebed in zero visibility in order to return it to Colin. I plan to double down on the charitable donation from my previous recovery to the KCF&G scholarship fund.

I headed to Clary Lake in Jefferson, Maine this morning to recover Carly’s engagement ring, it was lost in 14ft of water while swimming in a cove across the lake from her camp with friends and family on the 4th of July. After losing the ring the site was marked with a buoy giving a good reference point for use when starting my search. But, as with most of my searches, due to sediment being churned up there was zero visibility.

Diver metal detector search for lost wedding ring in East Boothbay, Maine

  • from Rockport (Maine, United States)

Continuing a family tradition of traveling from Houston, TX to spend the summer in East Boothbay, Maine dating back to 1910, Carr lost his platinum wedding band overboard while cleaning his boat, coincidentally named “Over the Edge” I was able to recover the ring despite the very silty seabed at Ocean Point Marina being littered with screws, nails and other bits of metal mixed amongst tons of broken clam shells. The recovery took about 2 hours of dive time, but happily ended in a good memory to be added to those that have kept his family coming back year after year. In addition to a generous reward, Carr treated my wife, daughter and I to a nice lunch. Inspired by the affect of a good meal to rejuvenate my chilled tired body, I will be donating a portion of my reward to Knox County Meals on Wheels.
