I lost a drysuit pocket with a set of X-Notes and a 150' safety spool on the Mac. The pocket got partially ripped off when I was inside the ship and I thought it would stay on for the rest of the dive, but it didn't. Someone said they saw it fall when I was doing my safety stop. If anyone recovers this stuff, I'll give them $30.00 Thanks!
 
What the hell are you doing rubbing up against a wreck? I'm sure your wreck instructor is very disappointed. :)

If you don't find them, I've got an extra X-notes you can have and you can get blem spools from Extreme Exposure for $15.
 
Thanks Duane! I appreciate it.
 
Hey Tony. The dive was pretty good other than losing my gear. Outside the ship, the visibility was about 10', but inside the ship it was around 30'.

Glad you had a good vis inside. I was up in Milwaukee diving the Willie with my dive club- there was an unusual current that looked like it was blowing snow!
 
I was the one who saw it fall off and we were in (+/-) 15" of water off of the south end of the wreck. I believe, due to the positioning of the ship, it would be somewhere by the stern, on the port side. Hey Dave, do I get some reward for watching it fall to the bottom and letting you know I saw it fall? Thanks RD
 
Yes, your reward is that you get to drive me to Haigh this Sunday :-)
