Lost Ring Recovered in Waimānalo!

I recently called Joe and while in conversation Joe let me know about a lost ring that’s in the water at Waimānalo Beach. Joe had already searched the beach area—combing through the beach and wet sand—but didn’t go out into the surf as it was like a washer machine and would of made it impossible to search in the water. Joe asked if I would give it a shot, and I gladly accepted.

After gathering all the details and adjusting my work schedule, I made the trip over the mountains to beautiful Waimānalo. Once there, I located the general area where Gabby believed the ring had been lost. I powered up my XP Deus II and started grid searching the area.

After multiple passes and a solid effort against the choppy surf, I began to think the ring might not be where she initially suspected. I pushed into deeper waters, hoping for better luck. Soon enough, I picked up a signal and dug—only to pull up a pull tab. Not giving up, I scanned the hole again and got another tone. I dug once more, and this time, sitting inside my extreme scoop was a stunning diamond ring!

Excited, I contacted Gabby right away. She was thrilled and verified the ring—it was hers! Later that evening, we met up at Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, where I returned the ring. There were big smiles, relief, and a lot of joy.

It’s always an honor to help recover something so precious. Thank you, Gabby and Joe, for trusting me to help bring it back home.

Lost Heirloom Gold & Diamond Ring at Ulua Lagoon Ko Olina Resort…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)

This ring find began this afternoon when I got a call from Anthony who is from San Francisco California and was on vacation.  While Anthony and his girlfriend Abi were enjoying the cool waters of Ulua Lagoon Abi’s heirloom Gold and Diamond Ring she got from her Grandmother fell off in shallow water and disappeared.  An immediate search with googles was hopeless as the ring was covered in the fine sand of the lagoon.  Anthony found me on a Google search and I had just returned from a Chinese New Year lunch with my wife Wendy.  I told Anthony to just relax on the beach and I would grab my detecting gear and head right down.  Traffic was a breeze so I made it there in around 30 minutes.  Anthony was waiting on the beach for me and Abi was in the water near where she had lost the ring.  I started a grid search to the South of Abi and when I was in about thigh deep water I got a nice 12-13 tone on the Nox and in one scoop there was Abi’s heirloom ring in the scoop.  They hadn’t told me about the diamond so I told Abi, “This can’t be your ring.”  She immediately exclaimed when it came into view, That’s certainly it!”  I could see a few tears of relief as we hugged.  Elapsed time 45 seconds.  They aren’t always this quick.  Aloha to Abi & Anthony!
