Diving the Straits

[CMAN]

The boys and I have been up here in St. Ignace diving. So far we have done The Cedarville (two dives yesterday) and The Eber Ward and The Sandusky (today). We are planning on going out in the mourning and doing two more dives (if the weather permits). I try and give a full report when I get back. A BIG THANK YOU to Doug (AKA-dsc2679) for helping me find a place to get some fills, without his help we could only have done two dives.

Glad you are having good diving. We were up Saturday/Sunday. Couldn't get out Saturday until 2:30 pm but we got in dives on the William Young, had about 40 foot viz, and the Martin Stalker, viz was down to about 20 foot but still good diving.

Sunday we went to the Sandusky and, again, had 40 foot viz then moved to the Barnum and the viz was about 25 feet.

All in all a good weekend for us. Met 4 divers from various areas and got some decent video.

Have fun and stay safe.

Hey Cman, glad to have been able to help. Don't miss the Maitland while your up there. We'll look forward to your trip report later. Be safe and calm seas.

CMAN,

Are you using your own boat? If so, check out the Cayuga. It's sooooo worth the trip.

We dove the Young and then the Barnum today, it started to get rough after the second dive so we went back to the launch and pulled the boat out. We are down in Alpena tonight and hopefully we can get out and dive Thunder Bay in the mourning.

Howdy Evart, I'm sure I know you! Those were great dives on Sunday. Blew me away.

Small world. Guess I should have asked if anyone prowled around Scubaboard. They certainly were good dives. The video I did on the Sandusky came out real good for a rookie.

Hope to see you again sometime. Stay wet.

CMAN, I'm glad somebody got up there. Our trip was cancelled to Whitefish, better luck next year. Did you see the post about Sept 7th?

We headed out of Thunder Bay yesterday morning to dive the E. B. Allen and the Grecian but as we were four miles away the waves became too much so we turned around and left. We spent the day at my brothers in Tawas and came got back home late yesterday. I just checked the weather forcast and it looks good so I will be heading to Lexington (or Port Sanilac depending on who comes with me) and finish the week of diving. Dave, I did see your post about the meeting on the 7th. I'm looking forward to that meeting as the Stayers always put on a great presentation.

So, when will you post it?
