    "They called themselves Guerrilla Divers.
    Composed of elite divers with Macho mentalities, back when men were men, and FEAR was a lispy companion of the common Man. It was a time before insurance liabilities, lawsuits or beauracratic regulation of the "sport". Guerrilla divers didn't need "Buoyancy Compensator Vests". In fact, "Anyone who needs a BC deserves to drown" was a popular adage. Exploration and the Hunt came first, excitement and fun followed. Safety was the stepchild of fitness, good reflexes and a cool head.
    This was a time of great Adventure."

    Wow, me and my gf Sylvie would really want to do this as a volunteer session, help turtles get to the sea w/o seagulls eating them.

    More info please !!!


    JUPITER, Fla. - After weeks of rehabilitation, a simple three hour trip returns nearly 200 baby sea turtles to their ocean home.
    "We take them in, we feed them and we get them healthy, then we bring them out to the weed line to release them. It gives them a better chance...a stronger start to their lives," said Tommy Cutt, the Director of Operations for the Loggerhead Marinelife Center in Juno Beach.
    Nearly 200 in all, the turtles were a mix of loggerhead and green sea turtles; some from as far as Ponce Inlet.

    This surely is a good cause and deserves attention.

    I wonder if divers could be used to ferry the babies to depth and released there, further prevent marine predators from having a feast.
