I've always been interested in diving these wrecks, but have been a little put off by all the boat charter website warnings about experience.
I was certified in soCal winter water back in '95 and have done perhaps 70 dives since then, but mostly on vacations from central america to asia in warmer water....not much around here but the occasional Catalina dive every 5 years.
Done plenty of current, surge, deep dives, but not sure what to expect here.
My question is how much I should heed these warnings or are they aimed at beginners?
They also recommend a dive master if not experienced in the area...given the viz and the cold water is this recommended or necessary for me?
I also dive a 5mm wetsuit no hood with a rash-guard underneath...is this enough?
Thanks
