Look for a Bayliner Trophy 2359 Hardtop named boat drinks with a big dive flag on the antenna. That will be me.
Congratulations...
And if you did get the Andy's you are really going to like it!
the across the chest zipper takes a little getting used to...
Did you get Andy's undies???

Didn't they dive once on the Edmund Fitzgerald? To put a plaque there or something? I think it sank a couple of years before teh Poling, a famous wreck around these parts. Back on topic, how much was the Andy's suit, and what did it include, if you don't mind my asking?

Yes it is too deep for normal people. Ever since reading this thread, I have the song by Gordon Lightfoot running through my head. 
Let us know how it goes when you get it!

The Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society was involved in a project to retieve the bell from the Fitz and replaced it with a bell engraved with the names of the victims. The original bell is located at the museum at Whitefish Pt. The Discovery Channel frequently airs the entire project.
Just to set the record straight, there have been divers using open circuit scuba who reached the Fitz in the 90's. My buddy was a part of the expedition (not as a diver). They had a few problems, but a couple divers did reach the wreck. It can be done, if you really want to do it. The hard part is hooking it, maintaining the hook, and weather.
Take care.

"Best of all, I got to pick the colors"
What kind of hardcore diving talk is that??
I didn't even know diving equipment came in anything other than "Sea Hunt" black!
