round)

Andy,
Atlantic Pro Divers is full for the 8th but wide open for the 9th. I just called and put my name in. I'll be glad to meet you at the boat on the 9th if you can make it.

Thanks

i put my name down for the 9th. hopefully the weather will cooperate and
we'll get to go.

 

[d@n]

Great, I'm hopeful. See you then.

 

[H2Andy]

well, the forecast for the 9th is not looking too good:

SUNDAY

NORTHEAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS. SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET.
INLAND WATERS A MODERATE CHOP. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS.

EWW

Any possibility of Ginnie Springs? I know it looks like it's about an hour and a piece from Jacksonville.
I decided not to ship my gear, so if I bring it, It'll be in my checked bags at this point.

 

[H2Andy]

ginnie should not be a problem at all

since you don't have cavern cert, we can do the ballroom, then tour
the Eye/Ear (no lights), and then drift down river if it's clear enough

 

[d@n]

Cool, sounds good to me. Saturday or Sunday better for you? Is a 3 mil fine? I see the temp is 72° year round?

 

[H2Andy]

i used to dive with a 3 mil farmer john plus hood and was more or less ok, but
i am a cold wus.

i dive dry now

sunday is better for me

 

[d@n]

Thanks - I have a pretty high t-stat, but I'll bring my hood just in case. I'll probably be fine in the 3 if the water's really 72°.
What time & where do you want to meet?
I'll need to rent tanks.

 

[H2Andy]

see my pm

9:00 Sunday at the Ginnie dive shop would be about perfect
