Bubble Boy December 22nd, 2002, 02:35 AM The Récifs Artificiels de l'Estuaire du Québec Society (RAEQ) anounced that it has decided the NIPIGON WILL BE SUNK JULY 26, 2003 at 13:00. The Annapolis Class ship displaced 3000 tons, and is 371 feet in length. SubMariner December 22nd, 2002, 12:22 PM Of course this begs the question: WHERE? It's a biiiiiig province! ;) ~SubMariner~ Jimmy B December 22nd, 2002, 05:14 PM Near the Empress of Ireland, within a mile. Jimmy B GTADiver December 23rd, 2002, 01:58 AM Rimouski Quebec, just by the Empress of Ireland canuckdiver December 23rd, 2002, 12:49 PM SWEET!! Who's up for a weekend expedition ??? DivingGal December 23rd, 2002, 12:55 PM canuckdiver once bubbled... SWEET!! Who's up for a weekend expedition ??? I'll probably head up that way --- but I'm going to wait and make sure she goes down, hopefully in the orientation she's supposed. I'm not having much luck - first the HMCS Yukon, then the Speigel Grove. canuckdiver December 23rd, 2002, 01:07 PM Well, I've got at least 3 of us that would be interested in a 4-day weekend trip, primarily to the empress. if we can co-ordinate dates, could probably put together a good group. taz22 December 23rd, 2002, 01:53 PM DivingGal once bubbled... I'll probably head up that way --- but I'm going to wait and make sure she goes down, hopefully in the orientation she's supposed. I'm not having much luck - first the HMCS Yukon, then the Speigel Grove. I'll be diving the Speigel in March. How did you like it?:clap: DivingGal December 23rd, 2002, 02:06 PM I didn't quite make it to the Spiegel.... I had plans to, but things fell through at the last moment. Maybe next year. What I was referring to was , that I had made plans to dive both vessels (prior to their sinking), and in both cases, they sank pre-maturely, and not how they were scheduled to. taz22 December 23rd, 2002, 02:55 PM DivingGal once bubbled... I didn't quite make it to the Spiegel.... I'll let you know how I make out, from the looks of the pics I've seen, I think it will be a great dive. Canuckdiver, I would love to go also ( ie:Rimouski ) if possible. Merry Christmas, Taz :D vlada December 23rd, 2002, 04:31 PM Does anyone know exactly who you have to contact and what you have to do to dive in Quebec now? GTADiver December 23rd, 2002, 05:38 PM the new regulations are not being enforced. in fact the permits are not even available yet. Bubble Boy December 23rd, 2002, 05:45 PM Here is the link to the FQAS new rules: http://www.fqas.qc.ca/files/new_rules.pdf Lets hope its not contageous or ever enforced! canuckdiver December 23rd, 2002, 06:27 PM ok taz, now your'e on my list! LOL thanks for the link bubble boy, I will be sending off emails and making phone calls to figure out what to do about the regulations. hopefully we can get the permit as a group for a "historical research expedition" :D DivingGal December 23rd, 2002, 06:51 PM As I'm bordering "La Belle Province" I'm monitoring this perhaps a bit closer than others from Ontario. One reason, is the quarry I DM OWs in - is in Quebec. Another is a group of us are going once again, to Les Escoumins in the fall. Will post as soon as I hear/see anything. The instructors I work for are keeping me informed too. GTADiver December 24th, 2002, 01:26 PM Is it a province or a republic? Bubble Boy December 25th, 2002, 01:42 AM Reading the rules....... Does it mean they are a Quebec certified diver if they do day one of check outs in Quebec and day two in Ontario? Thats going to mess them up! Morrisons quarry is going to get really busy with people from Ottawa.
