    ''' Do you See It ?!? "...I Totally loved the underwater sounds ..your explores would make- ...bubbling...so very much when I first found your channel 2 years ago- or- so...and at that time , Beau was Always saying , "Do You See It?!? "..right before he pull the relic out of the silt and or mud...Another Awesome Explore...-as usual ! Thanks

    I believe one reason we enjoy you and your videos so much are adventures like this. We've been there. Not having the equipment we discover we want, deeper water and storms but also the excitement of pinning down a location, returning to a "popular" site for the challenge (?), discovering anything and the invigorating fun of trying to find shelter from the storm only to cede to mother nature and charge through the rain back home with a smile.
    Thank you for sharing, for taking us along and for continuing to demonstrate its not always what you find but the journey that matters at the end of the day.

    That's a Coleman Scanoe, worth quite a bit and easily repairable. I had the punt version and replaced the ally tube with stainless. Sold it for more than I paid when I upgraded to a ally punt.

    Have you found a kayak paddle that is black in the middle, then silver, and then on the paddle flipper them self it is yellow with black letters "Chute"?
    It was lost right before the last bridge on the Antietam river.
    O and 1 flip flop was lost. It was a right foot, blue and orange OP flip flop. Thanks if you find it there will be a reward plus a good story to be told.
