Gilboa November 25

So can anyone guess the temperature range for the water for the Turkey Dives??? Got a diver buddy who is a wetsuit diver - of course a 7mm is in the order - but just curious. . . 50* sound too generously warm?

Also, anyone pin down hours yet? Will there be night diving Friday or Saturday?

Mike,

Check out the temp chart on Gilboa's website... http://www.divegilboa.com/conditions.shtm

The water is most likely still in the 50's. Spring is when the water is usually coldest as it's after the ice melts into the water. Right now the issue is getting warm and dry between dives.

By the way, does anyone else get a kick out of all of the 0s on that chart.... really isn't the best for advertising..... maybe Xs for the depths he doesn't have temps for......

Nope. I'll be spending the holiday weekend in Pennsylvania with family. Should be quite fun. Just won't include diving.

A couple people from my local club should be at Gilboa on Friday. & Brett was talking about heading down that way as well.

I wish I can dive deep together with some deco bottles. I don't think it is possible this time.:06:

So who exactly is going. . . Get ready for some cold. . . 31* high and 17 for the night time low! whoo hoo! Is anyone having a heated tent? Otherwise my buddy and I were going to B-line for my van right after the dives and take our gear off in there and eat soup. .. haha.

Does anyone have a pony set up I can "borrow?" I'm not all high-tech like most of you DOUBLES people (I'm a recently graduated college student) and a certain person on the board has thoroughly convinced me of diving with redundancies. Let me know.

I can't wait to dive!

There's only three of us in the apartment and it sleeps five pretty comfortably.
