My husband, after exactly 3 weeks of marriage, lost his wedding ring in a lake. We memorised the place. It is about 7 meters deep, visibility is about 2 meters, there is a lot of sediment in the bottom.
We have a technical diver with metal detector to help us in couple of days.
Do you think it is possible for him to find the ring?
I am so anxious... it is so precious to us (mostly emotionally, but also it was a costly, custom made ring).
What do you think is a chance in those conditions for a diver to find a ring? How sensitive are metal detectors?
I wish you luck. My uncle lost his Tag watch a number of years ago in about 1 meter of water plus about 15 centimeters of sediment but my father and I were unable to find it with a rented metal detector; of course, we didn't run a great grid pattern and weren't there when the watch was lost so the odds were kind of against us. My suggestion (taken with a grain of salt) would be to set up a decent grid so the diver searching can be methodical about covering the area where you think you lost the ring and make sure it extends farther than you think it should so you are more than certain that the ring should be somewhere within the grid.
