Desert_Diver
I'm a rec diver. last year I accended onto the bow of the Bianca C and watched for awhile a few of our group go down to the sand to catch a glimpse of a couple nurse sharks. then I casualy swam the lenght of the ship peeping into holes, doors etc. I'm a wreck diver not a tech diver ! my Idea, is instead of cruising the lenght of the ship with the time I have. I want to go right to the center of the Bianca C and step into a doorway a few feet and see what its like. shure it would be nice if there where a stacks of cups, plates, silverware just inside the door waiting for me

. but I would also love to wear a set of doubles and plan a longer and safe dive if WW will let me

Hay sonny,
I hope you can work out the work thing. It will be nice to have a few more Rec divers along, I for one will be taking some time off from the tech thing and see how great this island is, below and above the water. I hear the night life is great and for that matter the shallow reefs offer great photo opportunities and much longer dives. I don't actually crave the deco stop in my dives. Its nice to just hang out and :cool2:

without the worries of a deco plan.
Hope to see you on the trip.

There seems to be a conflict on how many days of diving. Under "SPECS" it says 5 days but under "* INCLUDED in 7nite/5 day LAND ONLY package:" it says 4 days. So 5 days or 4?

Sorry for the typo...it is 4 days of diving with a day off or your can purchase extra dives!

Sons of a Bitc!
Your really thinking of coming Sonny :wakawaka:

I'm with OTW I wanna mix it up alittle to.
I downloaded my Tech Cert lastnight www.bogustechcerts.com
So now I'm a TechnoLicious :thankyou:

Everyone thinking of going to Grenada (just do it)
Its a wonderful and magical place, rich in History and Full of Sealife. if you look on the map Grenada is at the most eastward part of the Carbi Islands, where the Atlantic meets the Gulf!

I have never gone back to a place I didnt like (period)

I Love Grenada Diving and the Country.
I think you will to.

I can't make this one, but I highly recommend the trip!! If you stay in the same hotel we did, I can recommend a great drink at a nearby bar. . .

So what's the status of this trip? Is it down to 7 slots? Bill are you going for sure?

Bjs

So, if my computer is flashing 212 .. 212 .. 212 does that mean I can't go any deeper?

Yes Bill is still going for sure...it is still a go and we need 7 for the tech option. I am doing a blast nation wide to shops and clubs for both this and the Sea of Cortez trip so we hope to fill it out soon.

I hope you and your friend can join us! -ww

So I am seeing air fare in the $480 range, and it doesn't seem that you can get into Grenada until 8pm Saturday. But I guess I will book it sometime tonight put me down for the Check's in the Mail.
