Hello,
We have been around since the early 70's in the St. Louis, MO area. We are looking for new members to help with Rescue/Recovery and fundraisers in the St. Louis, MO area.
You don't have to be a diver to join. We have people that just like to go out and learn about the boats and also friends who just like to help with the fundraising BBQ's and have a good time.
Little about us. We dive in the Mississippi River. With Surface Supplied KMB 17b,K. We also do normal scuba for car/gun/body recoveries also. Have a Seaark 24 CUB with house set up for diving with a 997 sidescan sonar to look for objects. We also have a 19ft SeaChaser and a few other small John boats and inflatables. Have our own teaching and boat storage facilities in Illinois. Also have our own tanks and compressors. We are based out of Granite City Illinois.
We have worked with most of the police departments in the area, plus the ATF, US marshalls, U.S. Coast Guard and many Homicide units.
We have pulled many cars from the River and ponds around the area, Even a aircraft that crashed into the river. Helped the CoastGuard with a Tugboat that sunk. Sailboats that have sunk, ATV's. Guns, knives, homicide or drowning victims.
Please feel free to contact us for any questions. We have a facebook page at
