The Tracy, Scutty, Pride, Moonshot, and Merci Jesus are all really close to one another, and easily done as a drift dive. Granted, one of these wrecks is just a rowboat, but the Tracy and Scutty are nice.

Enzo says this is not problem, unless the seas are rough.

Why don't we plan for this?

Sounds good to me. What will be the max/min/average depth? Will it be a 3-hour dive? I would like to use this dive to try out my new wide angle lens for my camera.

Depends on the site we ultimately end up doing. The Tracy is far from the inlet, so our runtime would probably be limited to less than 3 hours - maybe 2.5 or so. The depth here is 72ish feet to the sand. As previously mentioned, if the seas are rough, we would probably have to find another site, as it would take forever to get there.

In that case, a 2.5-3 hour runtime on the 3rd reef probably. Max depth there would be 90 feet?

Either way, I booked 7 of us on Scubatyme:

Mark - N2Diving
Lisa - LEDivevideo
Mark - MarcLaukien
Don - Dsix36
Adrian - sfldiver
Tony - Tienuts

This is still an open trip, so if anyone else wants in you can call Scubatyme directly at 954-786-0909.

Count me in. I'm flying home on Friday.

Tony,

Can you put my name on the list? I'm going to be tied up with a 'project' the rest of the day.

Thanks,

Eric

Phew... good that you join, otherwise all these Optima divers would have picked on me only

or

Both?

Marc, you're safe because our rebreathers come with the same stock handsets; consequently, we're practically family, so we therefore like your Hammerhead Rebreather, and you by default of course!

Plus, don't you still own your Optima?

No, I sold it. I had too many toys, it was time to sell a few...

**vidodivr** · 30th April 2008, 18:23

I just added Eric and myself with Enzo.

Tony, your list has six, but you say seven, if you counted Eric, please let Enzo know.

Whew now I feel better. I was dreading showing up with the new Meg after participating in the Eric bashing. But I guess I will get a hall pass since its a HammerMeg.
