My first two desires are to dive the Continental Shelf off South Carolina and the Andrea Doria, both of which are around 250 fsw (if my memory serves me correctly). I want to dive the Doria before it completely falls apart. I remember reading a story on one of the rebreather sites where a guy dropped to around 450 feet and found what was described as a beach scene with wavy sand and all. I’ll bet that not many people have seen such a site or will see such a site in their lives.
I have also talked with a few people around the Nanaimo BC area that talked about Sixgill sharks which come up to the 300 foot zone at some times of the year. It might be interesting to visit a group of those in their area.

As the theoretical max depth on the Dolphin in SCR is 81m, you could either close it or choose another unit then!

450 feet for a wavy bottom that you can see at 20 feet? Sounds like he either missed the wreck or was there for another reason. Deep for the sake of it isn't a good enough reason for me.
