I have contacted Gary from Gary's Gulf Divers and scheduled the Ft. Pickens trip for Jan 12, 2008. The plan is to meet at the shop at 08:00, sign waivers, pick-up any needed gear or rentals and head to the boat. The cost was quoted by Gary as $65.00 per person. Sounds like it will be a good time. This site is pretty dependable against being blown-out unless we get a strong north wind and if that happens Gary has stated that he would be a little flexable about going to an alternative site within reason such as the Mass, catherine, or 3 mile barge. I have already been confirmed on the list so there are 5 spots availible. If you are interested contact Gary at GGD at 251-968-4279 and/or check out the website at Gary's Gulf Divers, Full Service Dive Shops, Orange Beach, Alabama . Here is a map of the site which is still pretty acurate after the huricanes:

Just wanted to post something to put this thread above the old thread so that people will stop posting on the old one.

I won't be able to commit until after Christmas in order to see how my financial situation will be. Much more appealing if I get to dive the Mass afterwards :)
 
Yes...the Mass is an awesome dive...(hint, hint)....might even make it worth freezing your butt off....
 
Didn't he say the Mass was an alternative to not in addition to Pickens?
 
MmmmmmmHmmmmmm.....doesn't hurt to ask though does it..:D

Yes, I knew I should not have posted that info. The trip is for two tanks on Pickens. Gary and I discussed if the weather did not allow us to dive Pickens due to North winds that we might be able to go to one of those locations as an alternative location if weather allowed.
 
:focus: I'm sorry Walter. I didn't mean to start a hijack. That is my New Year's Resolution and since this trip is in January:


Denise = :ignore:........Better Gary? :D
