Lol you better hide there are gonna be a few members after you now!
Now you go me thinking.. it would be a pretty cool build and I could see my son in the river with me since they are so small and lightweight.
Ha, Great name! To be consistent with the rest of Tesoro's underwhelming product line, they just need to ensure the new model comes with an outdated 1980's control box; doesn't have VDI; and of course, still lacks multiple frequencies.

I've built 4 of these (Explorers and bounty hunters). Just grab a waterproof plano box, throw the guts inside, and silicone the wires. If you want to make it a little more professional and durable, buy "Cable clams" to run the wires through the sidewalls of the plano box. Boxes run $20-60 each (depending on size) and cable clams are $19 each.
An alternative to all of that is just watch the classified for a DetectorPro Wader/Diver. You'll get the same performance as the tiger shark and since the controls are in the headset, you can get neck deep without worry. I paid $80 for my last one. I frequently see them on forums for $75-125.
