Anyone who wants to join us is welcome.

Hi
Is the dive still on?
Are other divers welcome?
I would like to go if I could!
Thanks Rick L

Yes, the dive is on and pthers are always welcome. As for me as long as the weather isn't too much like it is right now. That is basically a monsoon I'll be there.

Cool!!

how you folks make out with the dive? was a little stormy in the morning, how did that effect conditions?

I had a little problem with my bc. I originally bought it about six months ago, and slmsot from the beginning I've had a problem with my tank slipping through the strap. Anyways after the tank slipped through the strap for the third time, I sort of layed low for the duration of the dive.

But we met up with a person who is a member of the froggies and Rick L was able to continue the dive with him. The water did feel pretty warm and they told me that vis was about 30-40 feet. By the way did I tell you that we dove at the cemetary near Lanes Cove. Nice area except for the long walk to the beach. The water temp was about 45 and with my wet suit I hardly felt it.

Anyways since my bc is only six months old, I imediatley went to my dealer, North Atlantic Scuba Sales in Hampton. Don who owns the place did a few configurations of the strap, and decided that the strap was a little too flimsy. The strap was known as a spagetti strap. So Don dave me a strap that is a lot more sturdy and I think that it can even lift a 400 lb girl I know who lives in Maine. So I should be all set.

Rick L did catch a few bugs and did two dives.

What planet are you guys diving on where you are seeing temperatures in the mid40s? Highest I've seen so far is 39 degrees at the surface on the Pinthis wreck on Saturday. Temp at depth was 37-38.
