Hi there,
Ok, so a bit off topic here... sorry to hijack (mods maybe you'll want to split this, not sure) but I'm desperate so bear with me here please.
I need the help of people (or a person) who has underwater metal detection equipment.
Lost my engagement ring while swimming yesterday in Lake Simcoe in Ontario, Canada. I am trying every possible means of getting this ring back.... someone suggested I contact local diving schools in the area to recruit assistance but I don't know of any and really, the water was too shallow for a dive but metal detectors would be great for this if able to be used underwater. I did a search in Google and ended up finding this board.
Any suggestions or know of anyone who might be up to the task of helping me find my lost engagement ring who has underwater equipment for the job? I am offering a $500 reward for its successful return.
The water was really shallow so really don't even need a diver per se but just someone who is skilled at uncovering treasure in water in general. the water is very clear at this beach,considering it's freshwater and not saltwater so the job should be fairly easy (you can probably even do it standing up and walking in the water - dont' need to dive/swim as it's so shallow where we were).
For me, a non-diver and non-treasure-hunting-professional, it was like trying to find a needle in a haystack - I'm not sure if there are professionals who are hired for this sort of thing but I can use all the help I can get.
If you're up to the task please PM me or email me at screaming {underscore} success {at} rogers {dot} com - I will give you exact location details. Generally speaking, the location is in Beaverton, Ontario which is part of Brock Township, in Durham region on Lake Simcoe.
I know the odds are few that I'll ever get my ring but I just can't rest easy knowing that I didn't try and do something.
Any suggestions and/or offer of assistance is appreciated.
Thanks so much and either way have a nice day.
