Gold dredging operation on North Fork of FortyMile river in Alaska

Proline 6 inch dredge is part of this package.
This comes with a DWX water heater and a T-80 air compressor
3 spare T-80's and an extra rebuilt 6 inch nozzle are also included.
This dredge can be run with the 4 factory pontoons or it can be streched to 6 pontoons by using the 2 homemade pontoons and frames I built.
There are to main suction hoses. One is 9 feet long and the other is 12.5 feet long. The two hoses can be joined with an included connector for an 18 foot hose.
The reason for the two hoses is so that in very fast water I use the 12.5 foot hose so that I can maintain control of the hose and I join them together when the water is not as fast or I need to work close to shore in very shallow water.
When using the dredge in the extended option a platform is available for hold a battery or what ever And an electric winch is mounted at the back of the dredge.
By using the included remote throtle controls and the electric winch which has the control mounted at the front of the dredge and because the hot water control is at the front, you can work all controls from one spot at the front of the dredge which reduces the amount of climbing around needed to dredge.
