Well, I was hoping for anyone really interested to send me a PM where I could give them whatever information needed.
Boat is a 2004 Parker 2510 WA on a trailer outfitted with custom dive benches.
Number of people I carry is dependent on who is going and what I am doing; I could easily carry 6 total for local stuff; I don't like feeling crowded so 4-5 is my ideal number.
Full safety gear with extensive first aid kit, ditch bag with epirb, flares, smoke, strobes, hand held VHF, etc. The boat also has the basic required gear such as PFDs and two VHF radios, etc.
Experience: been diving and on the water for 20 years in a wide variety of situations and locations. If you want more information you can look up my past posts here on SB or cruise through my website.
Just to be clear, this is not a charter. I am very safety conscious but I am not looking to be a babysitter. I am just looking for some competent divers who are boat saavy, and who are looking to actively dive locally.
Everyone needs to provide their own food/water and be willing to lend a hand launching and recovering the boat (kind of a beast to put on the trailer).
If you want more information -- please do so via PM
Mike
How about some more information?
What size boat?
How many people will it hold?
Safety gear? Epirv?
Your expeirence?
Radar?
Do you file a float plan
I mean your offer is nice and I am sure it would be better than a commericial charter especially for the spearo crowd. When I step onto a dive boat I want to knwo what precautions for safety have been made. I don't dispute you qualifications to captain your own boat, or the safety of the vessal, but the gulf is a dangerous place.
