Rec'd payment from Rocky!
Trip Update:
1 Spot left and we do have someone nibbling on it thanks to OTWDiver! However the spot is not firm so if you've been looking at this trip...now's the time to jump on this rare chance to dive very pristine destinations AND have exposure to the technical side of diving! We'll have rebreather divers, doubles divers, mixed gas divers, deep air divers and more at your fingertips...WOW!!!! What a wealth of information!
Participants...WE NEED FROM YOU...
1. Envelope with emergency contact info, any meds you are on and/or medical conditions you would tell a doctor about in the event you could not speak to them directly. We need a copy of you c-card and DAN or Dive Assure Insurance or other diving related insurance along with a copy of your passport in a sealed envelope with your name on it. (It will only be opened in the event of emergency and will be returned at the end of the trip to you.
2. List of any food preferences or styles of eating. Do you eat lots of raw fruits and veggies? Do you eat lots of starches/pastas? Do you eat lots of meat/protien? The cook on the boat needs to know what our food needs and wishes are.
3. Are you vegetarian and if so which kind? Are you quasi-vegitarian like I am...I eat 80% raw fruits and veggies with a little meat protein at night and LOTS of veggies and very little starches? Are you allergic to anything? If so we need to know.
4. Tech Divers...we need to know what gases you are diving...He or O2 etc.

I finally finished putting my scooter back together after the car accident, and I even gave her a fresh coat of paint so that she will look purdy for all the fish.

The check is going in the mail today. I am hoping I can find a few other divers on the trip that want to watch the reef from dark to light one early morning. I want to splash with lights and surface to breakfast. Any one else want to join in on this dive. Maybe the last day with the early dive schedule.

I just filled the last seat.

Actually Bill...filling the last seat is an understatement...you've filled the last 3 spots!
And you are our instructor on the trip doing the nitrox, and advanced for one diver, deep air for me, and putting me to use as a DM for a change!
Thank you for the update and a transition dive from dark to light would be cool. I think the last day would work out very well as it would give us an extra dive we might not make otherwise with clearing customs and motoring back.
Trip Needs & Docs:
Don't forget to send me or Howard your food preferences. Howard will send a reminder out to everyone to get them into us asap!
Payment Update:
Just got Rocky's check!

I will be using O2 & He.
As far as food goes I need to keep dairy intake to a minimum and prefer not to eat anything deep fried.
How picky can we be about the food? I prefer brown rice to white and whole wheat for pasta and bread.
Need any more info?

Not bringing my tanks, so will need nitrox, I have yokes, not DIN.Please send me food needs, and please let us know if you are bringing your own tanks (or will be needing tanks). Speaking of tanks: I don't know if the boat has DIN or standard yoke valves. Please make sure you are prepared. If you will be doing deco diving and/or tech, please let that be known and any estimation of what you think you will need in the way of Helium and Oxygen (assuming averaging 4-5 dives per day).
Please send in one PM together so that I can keep everything straight.
As for food requirements, just as long as it doesn't eat me first.

Diving:
I'll be diving 100's via the boat's tanks nitrox most of the dives.
I'll have a set of hp 100's doubles for half of my training dives.
Instruction:
I am working on my deep air cert. and I'm DM'ing for the nitrox and AOW class.
Food:
Breakfast: I eat fruit for breakfast and often lunch usually 2-3 peices of each. I eat all fruits except for oranges. Bananas are requested due to potassium needs.
Lunch: I usually eat fruit for lunch as well or salad/raw veggies (made from spinach or dark greens if possible.)
Dinner: I eat lots of lightly cooked or raw veggies for dinner. I eat some rice, no pasta. I will eat some meat usually fish, or pork preferred grilled or cooked as lean as possible but only a very small amount. My meal is comprised of 80% veggies and 20% rice and meat.
Basically I am a vegetarian that eats mostly raw plant based food. I will eat a little meat protein at dinner.
Beverages: I drink juice in the morning for my flaxseed (please have choices other than orange juice as it is too acidic for me when diving.) I drink bottled water most of the day. I will drink red wine with a meal or after dinner.
Snacks: I usually don't snack but if I do it will be fruit. Pears, peaches, apples, grapes, melons, papaya, etc. is all good. Thank you!
p.s. I also sent her my Rooming & Trip Survey, My SD Liability Release , and my sealed envelope of vital info in case I can't speak and need instructions to be given to a doctor on my behalf. (It also contains a copy of my c-card, passport & driver license in case they get lost or stolen.)
