Well, I'm back from Maui and the ring is being sent back to the owner. I met the detection guy and he was a really nice guy who does this as a side job.
He had already been paid a fixed price a while back to look for the ring and wasn't going to claim a reward - He's just going to send it back to the couple that lost it.

He did have all thier contact info and I was able to call the wife and tell her I found the ring.
Boy, was she suprised! They were on thier honeymoon right after the wedding back in 2009 and lost it their first day on the island. The ring hadn't been resized yet and fell off the very first time they went into the ocean. Lots of searching but no ring turned up. She offered to send me flowers / gift / money, but I declined - It's just nice to know they got back something that was important to them.

Hey Richard - Sorry, I didn't get the above post before I left or we could have met up. I was actually suprised at the number of P Cars I saw in Maui - yellow 911 SC, white Cayman, 2x Boxsters and a 996 or two I've been to the I'o valley a few times - some nice hiking trails in there - quite different from what I see up here!

The only donwside to the trip? MCDonalds doesn't make the SPAM MCMUFFIN ANYMORE!!!!

Regards,
Andrew M
