It's a few miles south- maybe 5 at most? You might want to try a little further north.

Details details details....
FOR SALE CHEAP..... 1 brother :(

well he's 37years old 6'4" inches tall... hazel eyes, cute but I am his sister so I think that he is wonderful.... makes enough money to support his dive habit... I thought about auctioning him off on ebay.... but i think that is illegal in some states.... modest, a tad shy till you get to know him, can be a butt head and he admits to it... that makes him honest and somewhat sensitive. all this in a convient portable self carrying case....

intesrested parties please contact me.. best offers will be considered.... PS he will kill me if he finds out that I am trying to sell him off.... but it sort of worked for the other brother. I got him married off last month....

Marvel-Ous:

How about an update as to the Beach / Boat dives and party - times and days?

I'm still undetermined about what's gonna happen. I've got friends that want to see OceanFest for one day - I'd like to stay 2 days, got to go to SunNFun [ big Airplane Show ] in Lakeland on Sat or Sun - toooo much to do and no time!

As a side note, dove the 80 ft ledges off of Jupiter on Sunday, seas flat, air 80's, water 70 [ yea cool ], vis 35' [ yea not the greatest ]!! Saw 12 ft shark and lot of smaller ones, Turtle, Green Moray, 1/2 dozen Really BIG JewFish that disappeared under a reef ledge, lots of fish and very very pretty reefs!

Well.... :dancing: I'm taking off on Friday so basically, show up when you want to. The majority of folks will probably start arriving after 5 PM &, in typical Conch Republic fashion, there will probably be groups going into the water at various times. No boat diving is planned that I am aware of but you never know. I think there may be another beach dive in the AM before people head over to Oceanfest for the day....

Hi All;
Blizzards in April definetly can change time plans. It looks like we won't get to Fl before Friday am right now. Need to change my meeting schedule; but plan on being at OceanFest on Saturday AM. Hope you have a great dive and look forward to seeing you on Saturday.

I'm planning to head over tomorrow after work. I will have to make it a short weekend as I'm working Sunday. What's with all the 6 day work weeks?

There are so many people coming to this thing- many of my local dive buddies from scubaboard who are not members of sd.com (married, buddied,future members. etc) The count from both dive communities is going to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 30+ divers & friends! Guess we're all glad to see winter pass & the dive season start. :birthday: There is a firm plan for a dive at 7 PM for anyone who's interested (joescuba?) & I know of a few people who will be over much earlier in the day for a dive or two... all are welcome to join us! :birthday: If there is anyone who still needs directions, PM me.
