This ring find began yesterday morning when I got a call from Sabrina who lives in Mililani on Oahu.  While enjoying the day with her Grandchild at Nai’a Lagoon Sabrina realized her Gold & Diamonds Wedding & Engagement rings that had been in her Beach Bag were now missing.  She checked everywhere she could think of from home to her car through the parking lot and the path to the beach.  Finding no trace of her cherished rings she felt hopeless and reached out to Tanielu of Aloha Security.  Tanielu told Sabrina that I could locate things with a metal detector.  Since I was tied up at work until late I told her I would go to Nai’a Lagoon the next morning around 7 to search.  When I arrived we spotted each other on the beach and Sabrina came over to show me the area they were at on the beach thinking this was the last possible place the rings could be.  I immediately started a grid search and thankfully I keep this beach metal free I didn’t find a target until on the third leg I get a loud #9-10 on the Nox and in one scoop there was the wedding ring.  Sabrina was up on the path talking to security and I yelled up to her got one of them.  I marked my spot with the scoop and walked up to give it to Sabrina.  I told her let me go find the other ring.  I continued on that leg and no other targets were found.  On the return leg about three feet from the previous recovery I got another #9-10 on the Nox and in one scoop up came the Engagement Ring.  Sabrina was just over my shoulder so I just handed her the second ring.  Her facial expression was that of Joy & Relief at the same time.  We had a few laughs with security and Sabrina was able to go home feeling complete again.  Aloha to Sabrina!

This ring find began when I got a call from Jenica.  She was on vacation staying at the Aulani Resort when her husband Matt’s White & Yellow Gold Wedding Band slipped off in shallow water while playing with their baby son.  Makiki Joe’s Beach Team gave Jenica my number and that’s how she reached out.  I’d just gotten home from work but decided if I left immediately I could miss rush hour traffic.  When I arrived Matt had taken the baby up to their room to protect him from sunburn and Jenica remained on the beach to show me the search area.  I fired up the Nox and immediately found a golden hair clip.  Then on the third leg of the grid search I got a nice tone and in one scoop there was Matt’s ring.  Jenica assured me it was Matt’s ring and was very thankful.  Another vacation saved!  Aloha to Jenica & Matt!

This ring find began Monday afternoon when I got a call from Marcel who lives on Oahu with his lovely wife Taaliah.  While spending the day playing with his daughter on the beach and in the water at Honu Lagoon at some point his stunning Yellow Gold Icebox Wedding band became lost.  Marcel searched the beach but had no luck finding the ring.  He texted me a video and some pics of the search area and the ring.  I decided that since in the water was a possibility, I had to hunt low tide the next afternoon because Honu Lagoon can be a washing machine.  When I arrived the next afternoon and checked in with Aloha Security at the gate the young lady told me a Diamond Ring was found by a jogger at Honu Lagoon that morning and she had the number for me.  Thankfully they answered the call while in route to the North Shore.  I texted them a pic of Marcel’s ring and they confirmed that was the ring they had found.  They returned to the resort at 6PM and left the ring at the Front Desk at the Beach Villas for me to retrieve.  This morning I was able to return the ring to Marcel.  What a truly wonderful couple that were so gracious to me for the recovery.  Angels certainly played a roll in this recovery.  Aloha to Marcel & Taaliah!

This ring find began yesterday when I returned a call to Amanda who was on vacation from Mount Washington, Los Angeles, California and staying at the Aulani Disney resort.  While her husband Michael was entering the water of the lagoon to play with their children his Heirloom Gold Wedding Ring came off in waist deep water and disappeared.  Since it was getting late and the surf was up I agreed to meet Michael & Amanda the next afternoon at low tide.  When I arrived I couldn’t reach them by phone but with the excellent picture they sent I decided to go down and start the hunt in that area.  It actually happened immediately as I entered the waist deep water I got a nice number “15” on the Nox and in one scoop there was Michael’s ring in the scoop.  As I was walking up to the cabana chairs I spotted Michael and we waved at each other.  When I got to him he was about to describe the location but I said, “I found it already!”  Michael was like, “Wait, what?”  I said I hope its yours I just have to get it off my finger.  Michael looked in disbelief as I handed it to him and said, “That’s exactly the ring!”  We had a friendly conversation some hugs & pictures and I told them to enjoy the rest of their vacation to the fullest.  They texted me later “Our Ring Hero!!!  Thank you Praying hands!  Love this hobby! Aloha to Michael and Amanda!

This ring find began Sunday October 23rd when I got a text from Linda from Oregon who was on vacation on Oahu.  While swimming from Black Point to Diamond Head she lost her precious wedding ring at the ocean’s edge.  She had the exact address of the beach access and sent that to me.  As she was coming ashore a wave hit her and the ring came off in waist deep water.  I told her I would do a hunt Monday morning as the tide was the lowest then and the surf was coming down.  I was able to match the location to the map her brother sent me and I commenced the search.  I found a different ring to start the search and a few pieces of can slaw.  About 20 minutes into the search I got a nice tone on the Nox on the shoreline up slope.  After one scoop there was Linda’s beautiful ring in the scoop.  The tide was coming in so I was thrilled to find the ring when I did.  She texted me today that the ring finally arrived safely in the mail.  Aloha to Linda!
