Ok, color me interested. I am in the process of changing jobs, so won't know for sure for a bit yet.

And I believe Kamala owes me some bottom time... She only let me play around on top last time. :D

Hey this sould like a GREAT time to try out my drysuit and scooter... so is it going to be the same profile as before ? A really long dive on the U-boat and Schurz? Anything deeper? \

I guess it's time to dust off the interior plans to the 385...

Glad to see that you are back . . . or will be by then. Everything the same, my friend, except that I will be on my Optima CCR instead of the doubles. Not only will I bring the scooter but also my video camera.

Start making the dive plans!

....so Kim, may I ask why 2006 can't be 'THE' year to dive NC ? :P

...remember, some of us Texans are doin' the 'scuba marathon' with Wenchie...NC, then FG/Fling....it's not too late to sign up for 'scuba overdose'....and remember, this will be the last year WW does multiple trips there, going forward, I'm told she'll only do one trip annually there......I think THIS year is the opportunity to do it.

Count me in on that as well. I'll be bringing down my stage bottles and my 130's. :P

It's an old Light and Motion Housing with a Sony Hi-8 camera. The housing does have some great lenses and a color correction filter. So, the images come out pretty well even if they are not Hi-Def.

Some day, I will get the Hi-Def video camera. But, that will have to be when I can get the housing and the whole deal for what I can afford. The newest ones out there cost about the same and my rebreather! :P

I got the vacation days approved and scheduled so my check is being sent this week! Fin - I may ask for help in booking my flights because if you can get me the $250-$280 tickets WW wrote about - then who-hoo. Sometime it sucks flying cross country from the West coast!! :P

Look out NC - here I come!
