Boat dive 7/24 AM and shore dive PM

[KBeck]

Hey guys!! Since I've been out of the water forever, and I have to fly this weekend, next weekend will finally be the time to get some good diving in!
phree337 (Lee) is coming down from Jacksonville, and we'll be doing a two-tank dive with Parrot Island charters out of Ft. Lauderdale. When I made reservations today, they had plenty of space left. Two reef dives are planned, they charge $45 plus tank rentals if needed. Pulls out at 9:00 am.
Their number is 954-942-7333. Website: Parrot Island
I let them know some Scubaboard people may be joining, just specify that you're in the Scubaboard group with Krista.

Then, after lunch we hope to get a few beach dives in. LBTS, Hollywood, we're open-minded. Possibly the Yellow Brick Road (Jenny...??)..... or, Scubaguy and babe, I see you're planning time at Deerfield--want to stay the whole day?
Anyone else care to join up--AM or PM?

Beach diving sounds good!

Maybe have this thread for the boat dive and the other thread for the beach diving..

Have to pass on both trips. Going up north for a week and have a ton of things to do.

Have fun and dive safely....

Hey, thanks for putting this together Krista! I look forward to diving with you again!

I see there are a few other get-togethers this weekend also--I'm sure we can get a full day of diving in with some other ScubaBoarders somewhere...

Do you mind if I, a newly certified diver, tag along???

 

[phree337]

You're more than welcome to dive with us... call Parrot Island and get signed up!

 

[KBeck]

Blondey--Please do join; the more the merrier! Please let us know how to find you--name; male or female....? Just tell them you're with the scubaboarders so they'll be sure to buddy us all up.
Lee; no prob. See ya Friday.

Had a great couple of dive with Capt'n Jerry and crew on Parrot Island this weekend. We did a couple of reefs off Pompano - Turtle Ledge and the Sanctuary. Lots of life, including trumpet and cornetfish, a spotted moray, and the first site lived up to it's name resulting with an up close and personal with a hawksbill.

Nice to meet two new folks - Lee (phree337) and Alli (Blondey). And Krista as always it was a pleasure.

A few shots from the dives can be found here.
