Welcome to the board fellow Ontarian..........call me crazy but I'm guessing your photo wasn't taken in the Ottawa area.......

I'm beginning to think that summer isn't coming...... it just snowed here again overnight....... Welcome to the board and I hope you can finish off your course as soon as possible..........

Thought I might want to re-introduce myself, its been almost two years since I have been here, been kind of busy getting married, building a house and such. Still diving although not as much as I would like. I hope to meet alot of new people, I can't believe how this board has taken off since I...

We were just on the Jodrey on May 20, Wayne took us out, it was 9:00 am and cloudy so the darker than hubs of hell reference stands. Vis was pretty good but the water temperature was a little harsh at 44 deg. F at 190' and 49 deg @ the surface with a total run time of 88 minutes we were chilled...

Wow so many wrecks, and to narrow it down is tough..... but based on the ones I have been on so far my list would look like this....... Lake Huron: The Northwind in the North Channel above Manitoulin Island, upright on the bottom, lots of penetration from the holds to the engine room, galley...

It's actually probably three hours from Toronto, beacuse its four hours from St. Catherines but Rockport's nice for diving. You can do a shore dive to 220'+ or any depth in between. You can also stop in and see Thousand Island Pleasure Divers for a charter, like out to the Roy A. Jodrey, after a...

Unless somebody moved it the last time I checked Port Colbourne was still south of us on Lake Erie........... and the C. B. Benson is a nice wreck although you would be hard pressed to break more than 85' without a shovel:confused:

Took the Rescue course in spring of last year, but that's as close as I intend on getting to the professional side. I found the course very helpful when it comes to reducing stress load and can now identify stress loading on new divers pre-dive........when it makes a difference. As for the...

Submariner Innerkrap...................that's funny:D 3 ft vis........you were there on a good day.... went there once a couple or three years ago.....haven't been back since. Septic tanks are deeper and have better vis.:eek: voodoogas_diver

Lance Gothic, Without having the actual book in front of me it appears that they haven't found it either, reference http://www.eriewrecks.com/Speaker.html They can tell you where to look though, but maybe I'm wrong, being from the other end of the lake I do have Erie Wrecks East...

I'm all for the Andrea Doria (also a goal, but monetarily probably not available till next year), we will return to our beloved Empress of Ireland again this year. I also love the Saratoga, Scapa Flow ideas........although I would want a couple of weeks of diving them...........can't do them in...

I have to agree with Jen, nothing beats the nice cold great lakes. The first year I dove year round wet.......then somone hit me with a shovel Not necessarily the coldest but interesting......July 25, 2000, that's right JULY people......Long Point, Lake Erie on the wreck of the ST. James @...

You are a mear hop, skip and a jump, from the five greatest and largest freshwater lakes in the world. New wrecks are found every year, before rail moved in the lakes were the highways of trade and commerce and the many storms took their tolls on the strong and weak vessels alike. The nice cold...

Up here we have two seasons, Winter and construction. During construction air fills at the LDS are $ 5.00 CDN or about $3.00 US per cylinder. This means that I have my twin PST 104's filled for the equivalent of $ 6.00 US. During winter, because divers really drop off up here they drop it to $...

Mattsimus..... Have seen some pictures and no deck plans........would appreciate anything you can scare up, for examination and dive planning:bonk: :eek: :confused: ;-0

I realize I am a little late on this discussion, but being new to the post I thought I would give my two cents worth anyway......... Just in case anyone cares "Standard Air" by defintion is DRY air that weighs 0.075 lbs cu/ft @ 70 deg F and 29.92 inches of mercury (or 0' asl or 14.7 psi):D

Diving Gal Not to be a stickler or anything, but we are actually west of Buffalo and a little north. If we were north I'd live in New York state...........not that there's anything wrong with that...:shiner:

:D Matthew.......... I hope your staying out of trouble tonight......... I agree, Jodrey, sounds like fun, maybe when I finish my tri-mix course we could meet there........for some reel penetration. :confused:

Being in the midst of the Great Lakes, home to what may be the greatest proliferation of wrecks in the world, I have done only a little of what is actually out there. Just some off the top of my head...... Brown Brothers - tug - Lake Erie Wilma - schooner - Lake Erie Arabia - schooner -...
