On late Sunday afternoon I got a frantic call from Julia who wanted to know if I could help recover wedding ring set that she had accidentally lost in the sand at East Beach in Santa Barbara. I assured her we could find them and I made my way to Santa Barbara. East Beach is a popular destination for folks looking to enjoy warm breezes and calm waters and Julia and her husband Robert were there to spend the day enjoying all that Santa Barbara beaches have to offer. Unfortunately in an attempt to protect her rings Julia had taken them off and placed them in her shorts pocket while she went for a swim. When she was finished swimming she had put her shorts on again and then went to get her rings out of the pocket and they were gone!

She showed me the location where they were at and I began to grid the area and in a minute or two I got the first great tone on my Minelab Manticore and I pushed my CKG scoop into the sand and out came Julia’s beautiful engagement ring. Another swing or two later of the Manticore and her wedding ring was in my CKG scoop safe and secure.

Remember, if you lose your valuable piece of jewelry all is not lost if you call or text Dave at 805-290-5009. Dave has the experience, the skill and the time to search for your ring even if it’s at 2am!

Lost Wedding Ring Recovered at Low Tide on Ledbetter Beach Santa Barbara

If you accidentally lost your wedding ring at the beach or in your backyard call or text Dave Mac Donald, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties #1 ring recovery specialist at 805-290-5009 so you can get what you lost back to you ASAP.

Vacationing in Santa Barbara is a dream for most folks and it was for Kate and Dominick of England until a toss of the football in the water caused his platinum wedding ring to fling into the ocean. Two hours of frantic searching, and borrowing a metal detector led them to frustration and the belief that his wedding ring of 19 years was gone forever.  It was until a local facebook group recommended metal detecting expert Dave Mac Donald of the Ringfinders to find Dom’s ring.

Kate contacted Dave Tuesday morning and explained the time it was lost (on Sunday) and the general vicinity of where Dom had made the fateful throw. Dave explained that he needed to get out there at low tide which wasn’t going to low enough until Wednesday morning at 4:30am. He assured Kate that if it was out there he would find it. The family was leaving Santa Barbara that Tuesday so all Kate could do was drop a pin on the map and leave it up to the metal detecting master to recover the ring.

Dave got out there at 4:30am and using the pin location began to grid up and down to the waters edge taking advantage of the 0.7 low tide. After digging a bunch trash for a half hour, Dave got a clean signal on his Minelab Manticore right at the water’s edge and scooped the target out. It was pitch black out so he turned on his headlamp and began to shake the wet sand out and heard that familiar clanking noise. He reached in and there was a heavy platinum wedding ring. Dave sent pictures off to Kate for confirmation that it was Dom’s ring as he had to leave to go recover a lost silver necklace at Carpinteria State Beach.  The chances of a second lost platinum ring in the same location left Dave pretty confident he had recovered the right ring.

An hour later Kate texted and asked if her name was inscribed on the inside of the ring and a quick glance (the sun was up now) proved it was and the right ring was soon to be going back to the right owner and back to England where it belonged.

Remember time is not on your side when your ring goes missing! Call or text Dave the Ringfinder 805-290-5009 so he can help you get your ring back.
