I can't find a reference to this yet on SB, so here's a news flash . . .
Seems that SeaLab Marine Science Foundation is sponsoring Jon Council, Dave Lieberman, and Rene Mousseux in a world-record attempt to circumnavigate Catalina Island on September 30th. Using heated drysuits, rebreathers, and DPVs. Estimated to last one to one-and-a-half days. On behalf of some very worthwhile causes, I should add.
But you can read about it here if you're interested. I'm still not sure what to think, except that my mind recoils from the sheer numbing tedium of following a lead boat at one depth for hours on end. Best wishes to the divers and all the other team members!
(ff this event is already common knowledge, sorry for the duplication)
