My buddy and I are diving the Queen of the West (Lake Erie - east of Cleveland, North of Fairport Harbor) on Friday, and being that it has a MAST historic shipwreck mooring buoy on it, I was wondering what the protocols are if I find someone already tied up to it, or if we are there and some divers come by and want to dive it at the same time.
I highly doubt this will happen, but it is the peak dive season, and I was just curious if one ball can accomodate two dive boats at same time.
I'm thinking that one could raft up the boats, with one tied to the buoy, assuming that both teams are cool with the situation.
What about the second boat tying a long line to the buoy that trails behind the first boat?
Or second boat just simply anchors near (easiest, I suppose)?
Our boat is 22'
Anyone been in this situation? (wave report looks good - anybody want to join us? we can bring at least one more diver and non-diver - noon @ Fairport harbor, HTP marina)
