Do you think it is utterly ridiculess that I am contemplating taking a trip to Florida to dive the Mighty-O for a week, when I am here in Hawaii? Hmmm, my wife seems to think so...

The only thing I would reconsider (if it was me) was the cost to get there vs. length of stay.
That's a long way to go for just a week - plus you essentially lose 2 days flying - one day to get there, one day back. If your week doesn't include fly days then that sounds like a better cost/time ratio.
It was an awesome trip. Good luck finding a local boat to take you out there, though (especially one that doesn't want you to mortgage the house to do it). We "imported" a captain and his boat from elsewhere.

Check out my pics from the O. I took a slow boat out there from Pensacola 4 hours round trip. Very painful so look for a fast boat. The locals all agreed to charge a base rate for the dive. No less then $150 for a 2 tank dive, so they all should be around the same price. And book early since most of the boats I seen out there are pretty small.
It is about 30 miles off shore. And when it's rough...it's rough! :-)
