Greetings from Long Island, NY

I recently took delivery of my Prism Topaz after going to Roatan in February and getting trained by the NAUII tech peops. Our usual fare here is shallow wreck dives, 100-140 fsw, so I've been battling the weather but have managed trips to the Oregon and Yankee (G & D). All I can say is that the vast improvements offered by the CCR are even more apparant in the cold water, limited visibility environment. I've obviously got heaps of work to do on my trim and skills with the rig, but I am pumped!

Hey Bill,

Welcome to the new world! Kinda like being the only one out on a shoulder high glassy day isn't?
Peace, Chuck.

Gabe!

How the heck are you? I just saw Joe and Andrea Saturday morning (our Lockness trip got blown out) and told both of them to say hello to you for me. I'd love to catch up, it feels like it's been way too long . . .

We were cruising around the Nautical Mile two weeks ago and saw the Jean Marie, that brought back a lot of memories.
