Larry Horne and I dove on Capt. J T's boat the "Under Pressure" last Monday. We were trying for the U-701, but the conditions were un divable when we got there. Ended up diving the Nevada. It was in 75 feet of water, but what surprised me was the vis. It was the worst I had ever seen in Hatteras. In some spots, less than 5 feet. It was a shame, because it was a neat wreck. I am sure there would be plenty of artifact potential. I want to try it again with better conditions. It was cloudy and water temp was about 74 degrees. Air temp was in the 60's.
The best part of the dive was Jt's boat and operation. Highly recommended. We where offered our spots by Doug Newton since he had chartered the boat. we went down the night before and slept on the boat. I must say Capt JT runs a tight ship. Cleanest boat I have ever been on aand was very comfortable to stay on. They know what they are doing. We even watched movies during the long ride out. The seas where pretty rough, but his boat took them with no problem. Jt, his wife, and Doug went out of there way to make the whole trip worth it. I highly recommend his whole operation.
