The Pinta is a nice wreck. Relatively intact and shallow enough so you can get some good bottom time while staying well within NDLs.

I'd head out your way but it's a ride from LI to NJ.

We'd love to have ya, if you ever want to come down! The Independence II is very comfortable (Giant stride entry, Carolina line, T-Ladder to come up) to dive off of and fast as well!!! Same thing for the GypsyBlood.

A T ladder?

Why didn't you say so in the first place!

I'll be right there!
