Got the survey via trips and we'll update the thread shortly to reflect it. The airport has a shuttle so you can arrive anytime and take it directly to the hotel. The hotel has a pool both indoor and outdoor and it has a bar and wireless internet. So you can plan to arrive at any time. I will be arriving around 4pm and ready to greet clients around 5pm or so. We'll plan to do dinner around 8-8:30pm or so. If you arrive at 7:30 we'll wait for you!

I guess I can either arrive early and help you with the entertaining (LOL) or come "fashionably late" like Royalty ......(double LOL)...

Thanks for the feedback..... Will let you know.....

Important Trip Updates:

Arrival Dinner Thursday Aug 2nd:

For those arriving on Thursday afternoon or early evening we will plan to do dinner as a group so all can start meeting one another!

Sticky Finger's BBQ
7690 Northwoods Blvd.
North Charleston, SC
843-797-7427

Directions:
Go out the hotel to the left and you'll see it 1/4 mil down the road on the right. If you reach the mall you've gone too far.


Breakfast, Lunch, Cookout & Diving Update Friday August 3rd:

Agenda:
Breakfast at 6:00am
6:45 Carpool to dive site from hotel. (Experienced Cooper River Divers will lead the way.)

Note: Lunch will be served on the boats daily. SD's famous group bbq with 4 different meats all marinated differently along with a choice of healthy sides will be Friday night to celebrate our first day of finds!

Cookout: The cookout will be at the hotel by the outside pool area at 7:30pm.

Gear & Equipment Needed for the River:

River Kits: Unfortunately OTWDiver will not be able to get the right tooled brass to do his 'famous' river picks to finish out his kits. So the best substitute will be 8in long philips head screwdrivers that you drill a hole into to thread a looped handle thru of string, etc. (The idea is that it will fit over your wrist like a lanyard.) The heavier the screwdriver the better as you will use it to help you move into the current while you look for teeth. Don't worry...we'll show all the new Cooper River divers how to hunt and find teeth!

p.s. for those running late there is a home depot near the hotel and restaurant so you can get one there if you need too. Just try to get one with a hole in the end to attach a lanyard too or add the hole yourself. If you do not have a drill or access to one, let us know and we'll see what we can come up with.

Knee Pads: Don't forget to bring these as well to protect your knees and your wetsuit. I think the soft is the best choice as you will be kneeling on them during your entire dive.

Lights: Your vis will be the strength of your light. The more powerful your light the more vis you will have. OffTheWallDiving has a total of (3) 25watt Canister Lights for rent for $25 per day. (They are worth it! Last year I rented one...this year I own one! And he will cut you a great deal on buying one if you decide you too have to own one. They are light enough to fly with and powerful enough for the most demanding of light needs!) Also you will need a back up light . Again the more powerful the better.

Safety Sausage & Whistle/Alert: Bring a sausage if you have it. If not OffTheWallDiving will supply you a sausage. You will need a whistle or dive alert. Unfortunately OTWall does not have those to lend to divers.

Computer: While not deep dives...35-45 ave depth you will be doing 4 hours of diving on air. You should use a computer for these dives to watch your nitrogen loading. If you do not have one and would like to participate in DAN research you can use a state of the art Cochran Computer for simply providing some info about yourself and wearing a computer. Let me know if you want to use the Cochran computers. And if you just wnat the extra safety of a second computer or you want to help out DAN...let me know that too! I usually have 5- 10 computers available but they are offered on a first come first served basis and a couple are already spoken for.

Do we reserve the canister light with you or directly with OffTheWallDiving? In any case, I would like to reserve one for the 3 days.

Thanks,
Mark

Yes you reserve with and pay us. I have rented all 3 for the weekend for our group!

Ok so 2 more available...

[NJBerserker]

I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to use one of those computers as well as participate in a study. I do not own one yet and it would be nice to have the extra peace of mind.
