I recently bought a Sea Hunter MK II to have a unit that can be used in water.

With the 8" coil, I'm getting 13/14" on larger coins.

A larger accessory coil exists, that will add 2 to 3 inches depth.

Maybe I will get that one, but I find my Sovereign GT to be deeper when used in P/P mode. It's actually deeper (not by much, but deeper) with the standard Tornado coil used in P/P than a friends Etrac with the 11" FBS coil. Of course it does not provide much target data in P/P, but you still get deep goodies.

On the other hand, the SH MK II seems to be much more sensitive on small gold targets (BBS/FBS units struggle in that department).

So I suppose your detector is kind of a combo of these two worlds.

Guess my GT with a 15" WOT would have monster depth too, but I just dunno if I wanna dig that deep ! Me old back hurts ! :))

I do not know the MKII, it is possible that the GT is as good
it is a low voltage (12 volts) and garette does not give the delay of these machines ...

my PI are high voltages (+ 17 volts) with a delay of 10 us
which gives a very high sensitivity for low-drivers = gold & platinum....... ;)
PI Fisher--Aquamanta / Pulsepowers Goldscan 5C / Vista Gold / Nexus Coronado

forgive my english ...
