Don't miss out on a great wreck dive, the boat is booked for both days and only weather can can keep us from going out. We still have 4 spots available for only $80 per diver (per day if you choose to join us both days).

Bring your own tanks or rent from the dive shop.

Dive plan for both Deep-air and Trimix divers for both days:
We'll hot-drop a a group on the Hydro Atlantic, deploying a surface marker when we leave the wreck and a second marker on same line when we start deco.

30min bottom time with a maximum of 172fsw to the sand, 150fsw to the deck and 115fsw to the top of the superstructure.

Trimix and Air divers follow the same deco plan with a maximum of 38 min deco using 50% and 98% deco gas.

After 1 hour surface interval we'll off-gass on a 30-40fsw reef for 30-45 min with optional lobstering og spearing for those interested.

The Hydro Atlantic is considered to be one of the 10 best dives in the United States. Lying in 172 feet of water, the 320 foot long freighter is a real ship wreck, not a diver prepared, artificial reef wreck. A huge crane stands mid ship, with one of the ship's main anchors at its base. The winch is still on the bow and the engine is still in the engine room. This is a real wreck! Her deck is still crowded with equipment. Pipes that traverses the old hull from one pump to another. Cranes and giant winches still laden with cables.

Send me a PM if you're interested.
