Boston Scuba Show

[Mr. Nice Guy]

Hello,
Anyone have a link or information about the Scuba show in Boston on 2/13/03?
Thanks

I popped an email to the organizer... hopefully he'll send me something I can post.

Here's a link to their homepage http://www.searovers.org/. Great show every year and I might actually have a booth there this year. Look for me in my Decapod Divers vest and hat and say hello

Searovers is a different event. Boston Scuba Show is a much smaller [~200 attendees] one room, one day affair.

Fred doesn't have anything electronic... he's snail mailing me a flyer and I'll post the information from it.

And yea; look for me at both events.

Actually, since this is slowly turning into a 'local show' thread... let me plug my MWDC Wrecks show

I have lots of people asking me about "That scuba show in Boston where they have lots of displays and a movie show at night". I thought that was what we were talking about. My goof. Sorry.

Fred said it was fine to post his e-mail address for requests for more information [or to have a flyer sent to you].

Fred Calhoun

And like I said; I'll post details when I get the flyer. If you've not been to the Boston Scuba Show, or haven't met Fred, it's definately worth it. The guys a trip when he starts pulling out his old home-made scuba gear

Spectre,

Is Fred the guy who runs the "Easy Diver" charter boat? Have you dove off her and is it any good?

Yes, Fred is the Easy Diver captain. No; I've not been on his boat, but I've heard many good things. The only bad thing [depending on your viewpoint] is he had a tendancy to inforce 'captains choise' quite a bit... if he doesn't like the conditions. So while you'll get a good place to dive, you'll have to not be dead set on a specific site.
