Hi Jens. That's how I read it too.
A possible scenario.......
Driving along near the bottom with a set of metal detectors, get a good "hit" on a spot, so you drop a pinger tied to a sinker and small float say 3 feet off the bottom.
Continue making your sweep across the seabed dropping pingers where the hits are.
Once the area has been checked, return to each pinger location and do a more complete search.
Galleon treasure ? Well, maybe !
