Snowball Sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the specific scenario that is being described it can be said that the best type of sampling for you to use would be Snowball Sampling. This is a unique nonprobability sampling technique where subjects for the experiment at hand are recruited from the existing subjects list of acquaintances. Such as in this case it would target all the acquaintances of the Sting-Ray owners.
