Ohh good gawd! So are you saying you are with another CO shop that is brining 39 divers! Wow, this may turn out to be a mess!
A1 rarely shows up with less than 30.

Well there are two platforms, and usually they go in shifts..it will just be long days for teh instructors..Stay on the bottom Ron
And maybe you will have to go check out perch lake after all.

Seven advanced students doing deep, plus whatever advanced A1 is bringing, plus god knows what other shops will be there. New advanced students are just that generally, and they will likely all be kneeling on the bottom, i.e., boom, silt out!
I'm actually quite surprised that the CO shops are going down. Generally this time of year they do local OW CO dives, and don't hit the Hole much.
Well, I'm sure that even if there are 150 people there (I've seen at least that many, likely more) it will still be fun. But vis will suffer.
With the algae bloom, it WILL be a night dive..........pipefish:I know it's shocking :11: , but I'm teaching that weekend at blue hole. I've actually never dove Perch and would love to check it out if I can somehow eek out a little time... maybe a night dive there?
I'm planning to be there on Sunday, got something to do on Sat.

How was the trip? Did the housing work out well for you?

Who all from ABQ is going to be down this weekend? Kevin? Anyone?
At this point I'm planning on driving down alone, and camping!
I have SB stickers for anyone that wants them!

Not sure of the count from ABQ, I'd guess around 6-8 or so. Should be interesting with all the "other" divers there!! Let's practice running lines at the bottom!!
