Had an overwhelming urge to not use common sense the other night. Lost my cell phone in the dark as I was wading out, car keys attached, not a good thing.
Came back 10 hours later in the daylight, low tide, found it in 1 foot of water after doing a grid search.
Sucker still works! Had been submerged in 1-3ft of salt water for 10 hrs. Put in a bag with rice just for precaution, but in this case might not have been needed. Verizon,heavy duty, around $120, these things are tough!
