On a large pile of smokin' A'a, the most isolated population center on the face of the earth. 2,175 miles to Alaska, 2,390 miles to California; 3,850 miles to Japan; 4,900 miles to China; 5,280 miles to the Philippines.
I refuse to believe that corporations are people until Texas executes one.

Over the last 50 years I've been blessed with the opportunity to do most of what there is to do underwater, but I’ve never done what you’re offering up, I hear from photographer friends of mine that it’s a fascinating dive (I think they pre-date your operation). I’m rather focused at the moment on getting moved to the Big Island. But once we’re squared away there, I’ll be down.

So far we have been in business for 1 year. the years before we offered trips we did it for exploration and stock footage. We have been in Mares, Outside, Discovery, History, Animal Planet, MTV, and several DVD documentaries.

I heard about that dive. I heard it got kinda dicey?
for sure our trips are different than that one. We have a much safer way of dealing with the squids, to the point where we have taken out newly certified divers. We also dive in the day, I think those guys where going for it at night.

At night, no armour, and then shark suits. I'll pass, though I still have a bottle of beer that Bob brewed up after the trip that has squid eyes on the label.

I had a chance to play with a squid in about six feet of water outside our resort in Cancun last year. It was fascinating! I could never get closer than about four feet and he kept his eyes on me the entire time. One of my best experiences thus far....
You guys offer the most interesting experience in diving as far as I'm concerned. I loved the video of your dive with Humboldts you posted here last year.
