New Years Day Dive

ScubaQ · Dec 27, 2002

So who all out there is going to be stupid like me and my wife and go diving in that wonderfully refreshing water on Jan 1, 2003? WE are going to do our dive with our LDS (Scuba 2000), have a little champain afterwards, only to be followed by a soup lunch at our place for about 30 or 40 drivers. This will be the third year that we have done this and it is always a blast. I figure that we will be able to properly defrost from this experience when we are down in Cozemul for the 4th to the 12th

So where are you diving on Jan 1?

My LDS is organizing a New Years Day dive... Not sure where yet... But I heard a rumor that its in the old Welland Canal. Nothing too exciting.. This will be my first New Years Day dive. I hope nothing freezes

Someone mentioned a BBQ afterwards but that might be another rumor..

Our Scuba Club is doing one in Brockville right in front of the Rowing Club. The longer you stay in the better the prize you get. Then off to the Dive Shop where the hot tub is and allow for some defrost time.

About 40 divers did a surface drift under the Blue Water Bridge in Port Huron. This is an anual event. I was able to see a group of divers across the river in Sarnia while drifting. My buddy and I dove the Tremble yesterday with excellent visibility. Looks like it was only 4 to 5 foot vis today. Looking forward to Gilboa next Sunday!

Our dive went great we had 12 people, 4 of which came down from Aurora to dive with us. We had no free-flows for anyone in the group. Five of us in the group dove wet with the remainder diving in Dry Suits.

Bottom time was 21 min ( feet & hands started getting cold) and max depth was 38ft. Not bad for a 7mm wetsuit with a 3mm vest.

Water Temp 33F

Happy New Year to All.

I also did a dive on 1/1/03 but it ended up in exposure suits forum.

Both Papaer & Mamaer (sp) are from Ottawa and Cornwall so I figure I am Canadian enough to post here?

gorji come and join us next year it actually was a very relaxing dive.
