Big thanks to Big Jim and Northern Tech Divers for a wonderful day diving on the Vicki Marie. Great weather, a little choppy, and great wrecks!
 
Hi .

Missed you on Saturday...great day as well, we did the Marsh and Glendora....and I actually remembered a towel this time...:D
what did you dive?:)

Yep, did the cornwall first. It was a little choppy, but went to some calmer waters for the second dive at the aloha/effie mae. Met up with Kevin and a few others. Great day in all. Won't be in K-town next weekend - diving the Keystorm in Brockville. Will have to catch up with you - perhaps the week after.
 
Did the Katie Eccles and the City of Sheboygan yesterday (Monday). First time in over 5 years that I get to dive a new Kingston Wreck. Big thanks to Tom and Wayne at Northern Tech Diver!!!!
 
Vlada:

Nice pics!!! I just went throough a few of them that you have on your site.

It's funny to see how the wrecks have changed since your photos.

(Port Dalhousie wreck) is the one I'm refering to mainly. We "Locals" call it the Tiller for obvious reasons.

We've also had a few A$$HOLE$ steal some stuff off of it this year. A couple beautiful plates and some other "Ceramics". They were all found and then stolen this year :-(

What a pi$$-off. Why can't they just leave it alone like they (mostly) do in Kingston?
 
Yeah, but rumor has it they went out one day in a Zodiac, and scoop, it was gone.

Man I'm still cheesed about it.

There was only 3 pieces of "Ceramic" found to date, all this year. I found the first 2.

Since we only have the one wreck in the area, we have come to feel that this is "Our" wreck. Although it's totally silly to think it, I'm sure one could understand. Actually, when the wreck was first discovered in 1996, I wasn't even a diver, let alone have anythign to do with it. It was "opened up" to the general public for regular charters 2 years ago. I have done almost 2 dozen dives on it (OK I'm sick, (It's not THAT terrific) but with only 1 to dive in the area, it gets the pick every time!).

Anyways, we're territorial about it, and then we find out that everything is gone except for a wooden "pulley" really ticks you off.

We've vowed to lynch the offenders, and create a secondary wreck, called the "Zodiac" a short distance away from the "Tiller".
