THIS TRIP IS NOW OPEN HERE!!!



SAVE THE DATES!!! July 3-8, 2013 TO DIVE IN THE GRAVEYARD OF THE ATLANTIC!!! COME DIVE ON HISTORY AND MAKE YOUR OWN HISTORY WITH SINGLEDIVERS.COM!
Posted Image

It is now confirmed...July 3-8th we will be diving the WARM CLEAR WRECK AND SHARK INFESTED WATERS OF NC!!! ;)/>/>/>/>/>/>/>/>/>/>/> Plan to join us for fireworks on history...perhaps a little lobstering...a bit of lionfish hunting and a whole lot of diving with sharks on NC's MOST FAMOUS WRECKS!

Anyone up for doing some wreck and sharkdiving? We have just locked in July 4th weekend for 2013 as its been since 2010 since we've dove the Graveyard!(The season is very short for NC so the best months for least number of blowouts and best vis and warmest water is July and early Aug.) Posted Image

You can dive on history...the U-352 German U-Boat, the Schurz, the Pappoose, and more. These wrecks are victims of WWI or WWII and have become artificial reefs of a magnificent magnitude. See how close these vessels of war were to US soil...feel the devastation they wrecked on the US and Allied armies as they lie crumpled on the bottom of the ocean floor...and see what wonders remain including artifacts, awesome marine life and that special tingle knowing you are witnessing HISTORY!

Oh yeah...and the ATLANTIC SAND TIGER SHARKS!!! They are docile but will give you EVERY SHARK THRILL you can imagine!

The trip is fairly reasonable in price....US operators are more expensive than foreign based operators but the price to get there can be less for many and the season is only a few months long...but the price and experience is WORTH IT!!! WE MAY EVEN GET FREE LOBSTER!!!! :wakawaka:/>/>/>/>/>/>/>

So who's up for this amazing trip? It will include at least 4 days of 2 LONG tank dives, hotel, breakfast and lunch daily, PLUS a great cookout & fireworks as well as transfers from the RDU airport if flying in. Air tanks are included but you can upgrade to nitrox or 100's. Pricing for 2013 has not been set by the operators yet but we estimate about $850 or so for Drive in's and $950 or so for Fly Ins based upon this year's pricing. Prices subject to change but usually do not vary by more than $50 or so. And with economic factors the way they are...prices may even drop...but as mentioned before...ITS WORTH IT!!!



Those Interested In Doing This Trip and/or being notified when its open for booking: (We are not booking now but you'll get an email when its ready to book and dates are firm. PLUS this lets us know if we really have enough interest for this trip.)

Of course I am in! I get dibs on Colin's back when he needs sunscreen. And possibly shotgun as well as it seems to be the best spot for me not getting seasick. Happy to help with the trip if you need it Kamala. I have a big gear friendly SUV and could get folks from RDU or New Bern.
For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), it's always ourselves we find in the sea....ee cummings

That sounds great... hmm... shotgun AND Colin's back... well I'm sure we can work out at least one... and maybe both! ;)

Either way it will be great to have you join us and perhaps even help out too! :wakawaka:

Since I've not been on a dive trip before, let alone with you people, I think I'll give it a shot.

Hello,

The U-Boat interests me. So I would be in.

As a sidenote, I'll be in Chicago during October. I will certainly visit the U-505 as a nice preview.
