[QUOTE="dave14110, post: 77, member: 14"] Hi, I'm sort of in same boat I have an Xterra 70 but want a detector pacifically for beach in water. Have been looking at ctx3030, infinium & whites surf Pi, all three machines have very simular features. At this stage I think I will get a whites surf Pi, but I am still concidering. The reason for my choice is I am resonable happy with xterra so don't need to change. Only need to get in water. A very long term beach detectorist I know says I can't beat the whites, they are the cheapest of the three at $995 new are water proof to 200ft Pulse induction which is suposed to give better depth & work well on beach. A very large influence is that I have seen some of his finds. He also states that he has even had water seal fail after years of use & he rinsed in fresh water brought new seal and all is good. All detector's will have seal fail at sometime because sare rubber and do perish. Batteries for these are standard batteries easy to get in rechargable, same batteries as xterra which I have. So no addictional cost on extra batteries. Ps I dig nearly everything anyway as target ID's arn't always correct & can be influenced by circumstances. [/QUOTE]
