Ariesno1,

Are you still looking for a lift down to NC in Aug?

Bjs,
No, Capt Saaz is going to pick me up. Are you going? I am sooooo much looking forward to these dives.

Kamala,

Can you email me local rates as I would be driving down from Northern VA?

Thanks!

So what kind of exposure suit are people going to bring. Think a 3mil shortie with a skin would be enough? I don't get too cold real easily. In Roatan in April, I just wore a t-shirt on most dives. Water was around 84.

Ms. Fairy:

Never mind. I was thinking this was the Cozumel trip.

Oh well. Jim Bob recalls his last.

I'm going to bring my 3 mil and I have a 3 mil hood that has a vest just in case I need it. I'm basing this on posts from folks that went last week.

Am I missing something here? I was told water temps will be over 80......Since I only have a 1mm shorty......it has to be warm!

Good point. I'm just going with the Boy Scout Motto here... "Be Prepared".

You might want to consider something other than a shorty, not necessaly for protection from the cold but as some protection from the wrecks. It doesn't take much of a bump to cut yourself on them, also wear gloves.

Thanks. I'll bring the 3 mm and my gloves. I usually leave the gloves home because most of the protected places I dive won't let you wear them anyway.

Water temps have been unseasonably cooler than usual. We'll monitor as we get closer to our August trip. However the water was just getting to 80 degrees on our 4th of July trip at the surface. It was still running 76 or so at depth.
