Hey Otter,

I wish I could too. I'm just too far away and aren't certified either. I could try to freedive along side and could probably stay down longer taking a puff off of your spare reg.

Oh well... maybe someday.

Yes, please let me know the dates and how much too!!! Depending on this information, I might be able to drive down and join you.

Have you done any SCUBA diving in the Keys before? If not, you might want to check out John Penecamp Park. There are some incredible reefs there.

Good Luck;

I would love to go! I'm certified and everything, and have yet to make my first trip down there. That is just way too close to Christmas for me, and I'll be out of town for about 4 days. Hey if you are ever planning another trip down there I'd love to join you. Keep me posted!

I'm going to be down this winter from Dec 18th to Jan the 3rd. I thought I might run into a couple of you and maybe go in for a charter trip together.

Otter, I am dieing to get int the water again. I have not been all summer and it is killing me. All of my money has gone into my fish tank instead of diving.

I may be able to find a few dollars to join you for a day or two of diving.

drop me an email.
