The only thing we have in common me and Dr Garman is the dive mask :D, All the best wishes to accomplish safely his goal.
 
Got tank?

Tomorrow (8/15/15) is the big day. Here's a pic of the tanks that just Dr. Garman will be using. That doesn't count the other 70+ tanks and rebreathers that will be used throughout the day.

Our plan is to begin loading the boat(s) around 4am, head off the dock at 5:30a, and have Doc Deep in the water at 6:00a. We should know, at :38 minutes how he's doing when we get our first SMB notification from the Deep Support team. After that we're looking at a total run time of 10:25 putting us back on the dock around 5pm tomorrow afternoon (AST which is the same as EDT this time of the year).

I will be watching close. Sending positive thoughts and hoping for a safe return.
 
Today's the day.

We are about to go dive ourselves. Not tech, just recreational off Roatan. While we are down we will be thinking about Doc and sending peaceful energy. Anxious to hear an update.
