All of the dive shops offer AOW on the Oriskany. However, there are really two problems you face when wanting to dive the "O" right now. The first problem is finding a boat right now that is willing to run out there. The second problem is that nobody can say for sure where the oil is and were it is not. There are millions of gallons of oil out there and there is no telling were and how big some of those sub surface oil plumes are. Just because you dont see them on the surface doesn't mean that there isn't any oil. I am most likely going to get flamed like crazy for saying this, but I think it is just not that safe to dive for at least a little while. If you don't have at least an enviromentally sealed first stage I would definately tell you to stay out. There is just no way I would take my Scubapro MK25 out there right now (not environmentally sealed). If I was to hit a sub surface oil plume with my first stage it could fail. I know that some people are taking folks out there and trying to dodge the oil the best they can, but that doesn't sound like the safest thing to jump into and definately not a good training environment. Just because there isn't any oil when you jump in, doesn't mean that there wont be any oil move in during your dive. There is a good reason that people are not really going out there and that is that it is a huge gamble on if it would be safe for the divers (basically a liability issue). I have talked with people who are out there in boats working for BP right now and they are all telling me to not only stay out of the water, but to stay the *&%$ out the water right now. Now that the well is capped I would just wait a few and see how things progress. Make sure that the environment that you are going to be jumping into is going to be as safe as it can be.
Let the flames begin...........
