Eagle scout and OA in 1973.
Summers at Emerald Bay on Catalina were always a treat: night canoe trips (really bright plankton trails at each stroke);
LOUD grunts from a BIG boar at 2AM on my silent OA night; mile-swim to Indian Rock;
and especially helmet diving from a floating dock, which got me hooked for diving. And eventually led to starting HydroOptix.
