This post was emailed to me earlier today. It sounds like an amazing opportunity. Unfortunately, my timetable tells me this is two or three years of training and experience beyond my reach.
Do you anticipate offering this trip to the public on an annual basis?

Grounded,
You are most certainly the best judge of your own ability and comfort level, and certified never means qualified! I have seen days on the Doria, (although rare) when there was 100ft viz and zero current, and other times when I would rather be having root canal then be out there.
I am planning other deep wreck expeditions in 09, but will not rule out another trip to the Doria in the future. Stay in touch...
Safe diving!
