Can anyone reccomend a good dive boat in NJ? I want to hit the San Diego and some Jersey wrecks.

Ol Salty 2 is a good boat that might do a San Diego run but need to check:

I would definitely be interested in a boat dive followed by HH. Recreational limits and nitrox only for me though. Any wreck in the 130 ft. max range is fine. I could do the San Diego with modest penetration. The Algol is a nice wreck too. I've been on her once and would definitely go back. A perimeter tour of the upper deck at an average of about 100ft takes about 25-30 minutes , and makes a nice easy first dive on her.



Alternative 2: Pir 8 could book us all in for a dive at the Baltimore Aquarium to see how many divers we can cram into a fish tank. It would sort of be a variation on the classic stunt, how many frat boys can you cram into a phone booth?

Any weekend in July looks pretty good for me right now.

A boat dive and a HH would be great...especially on the San Diego or Stoldt.

Well...as most of you know I do not dive this far up North. But if anyone wants to meet up for drinks I will be hanging out in Point Pleasant for the weekend.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

I can try to set this up if I have enough interest. I need 12 divers to get a full session, probably would be better for a colder month though I know I can't get in until at least Sept, probably October.
Never say Never! Its almost as long a time as always!

Its not cheap at $295 and 70 degrees F if I remember right, I was comfortable in my 5mm suit.
