A few friends & I are putting together a 3 day live aboard in the Dry Tortugas leaving the evening of Thanksgiving Day & returning Sunday evening. We're booked on The Ultimate Getaway. If anyone thinks this sounds like a great way to spend their Thanksgiving weekend, you are welcome to come along- I'd love to turn it into a great, big Conch get together!
Here are the particulars:
Departure: Thurs 11/23/06 approx 7 PM
Return: Sunday 11/26/06 approx 5 PM
Day one:
Arrive at 7:00 am on your first dive site, breakfast will be served (before or after your dive, your choice). Then we will continue to move to different dive sites throughout the day. (Plan on 5-8 sites per day). You can pick and choose which sites you'd like to dive! Most dive sites average between 40-80 feet, we can customize to your abilities. Lunch and dinner will be worked into your schedules.
Day two:
Will consist of the same type of schedule. A visit to "Fort Jefferson National Monument" can also be worked into your itinerary.
Day three:
You will wake up anchored to the "Baja California", a World War ll transport ship built in 1914. The 266-foot steamship was carrying a general cargo that included tobacco when it was torpedoed just forward of midships by the German submarine U-84 on July 19, 1942. The main wreckage now sits in 115 feet of water off Naples. Read more about this wreck.
Your next dive will be on an Air Force relay tower, (A trip favorite!) Then we will be heading home, arriving between 4:00-5:00pm.
**Please note- there will be spearfishing on this trip.
Cost:
$705 + $40 for Nitrox
IF we get 10 people!!!: COLOR]
$576 + $40 for Nitrox
IF we get 20 people!!!: *****WE ARE THERE!!!
$560.50 + $40 for Nitrox
$100 deposti holds your spot- balance due the day of departure. There is a 30 day cancellation notice.
Trip payment can be done one of FOUR ways only:
VISA
Mastercard
Money order
Cash
No checks, no American Express accepted.
If anyone is interested, please make all arrangements directly with the dive op- none of us have anything to do with the financial side of this. They only require a $100 deposit to hold a spot. If we reach 10 divers, we'll let you know because the price drops significantly for all of us. It is important to mention that you want to book on the Marvel Mayfield trip, since that's how the original reservation was made.
