It was good. Great company, although I though a few more would have showed up (and you know who you are;))

Weather was a little chilly last night. Friday night there was a break in the rain which gave us enough time to get the tents up. There were a few light sprinkles during Saturday, but the rain stopped enough to have a fire.

Both Saturday & Sunday were pretty busy. Depending on where you were diving, the vis was pretty good to crappy. Surface temps have warmed up almost 7-8 degrees since the meet & greet. The temps by the tubes remained a balmy 41 degrees.

Have to say it was fun diving with everyone!
 
What is the current surface temp? I'm glad you guys at least got wet. That's more than I can say for me. I'm hoping to get up there either on Saturday or Sunday (or both)

Wah!!

It was a great dive weekend compared to many we've had. Not too hot to roast in your drysuit; Not too bright; Air temps in the upper 50's and 60's. What the heck do you want, the Caribbean?

:D

I find that in the spring/fall rainy days are great days to dive. The rain tends to make you want to get under more, wher you don't have to deal with the elements, and I find that this time of year it actually helps the surface temperature.

Personally, I've never had the pleasure of visiting the infamous Gilboa, but it's definatly on my todo list. I'll have to monitor this forum more often to look for a get together.

Several new docks either in or going in... crowds not bad at all. Resident felines are doing well. Water beginning to build a strong thermocline. Visibility is good and everything looks great for the coming season... IMHO

Those of you who are close to Gilboa should realise how fortunate you are!

I belive that we were across from you on Sunday. We had the blue tarp set-up with food being cooked or served most of the time.

Actually the weather wasn't that bad. Diving on Sunday was great! The vis on the night dive wasn't too bad either.
 
Two new docks went in on sunday. They are far from done but will be up sone. One to replace and one new dock in the middle of dock 4 and 5. We mucked things up pretty good over buy the walk in. We also got rid of the dock that was pushed out in the middle. I hope everyone will enjoy the new docks.
