9/15/2023 0 Comments Small backpack dredge![]() Since I got the dredge for free I can afford to spend some money improving it and also on a good pump.īlast from the past! The float with integrated box is a Keene 1.5" model from the mid-1970's. Possibly Gold Divers made a backpack dredge and it's one of theirs? Sure appreciate any comments or suggestions for a pump or a picture of a complete dredge from this unknown manufacturer. The overall dimensions are about 2 feet by 3 feet, the bottom is completely flat and not pontoon shaped like the Packrat dredges. I checked with the guys who now make the Packrat 2 dredge and they didn't recognize this dredge. I understand, but not for sure, that the Couple Jet or Infinity type of nozzles work best with a higher volume lower pressure pump, as opposed to suction or jet nozzles that work best with higher pressure and somewhat lower flow. The dredge didn't come with an engine or pump and I'm trying to figure out what would be the best pump/engine to get for it. It came with a nifty little "Couple Jet" nozzle made by Gold Divers, Inc., formerly of Mound House, NV, but now out of business and retired. ![]() A friend gave me this little backpack dredge.
