Anybody have any suggestions for a good dive operater for a seal dive up at Isle of Shoals in N.H.? Looking to put one together for my club.
 
I would 2nd Captain Rob's we used them for all of our seal dives last year and we have already booked 8 charters with them for this summer. They run a profesional operation and are very easy to deal with.

Around a 100 active members. We're very lucky to have divers in our club and not just socialites. I'm working with Capt. Rob's now trying to arrange a date and time. These usually fill very fast so I might have to run 2 of them.
Thanks to all for you input.

Paul,
I am considering organizing a group dive for a club that I belong to. How many divers does Capt. Rob take out at one time? I went to their site but could not get a good look at the boat. I'm interested in if he sells the boat for a fee and we fill it to a particular limit.

Regards,
Dennis

His boat is USCG certified for 12 divers but that can be crowded; Especially if the all the squirrels bring all their nuts (and bolts). I "think" he will charter with only a couple of divers. Best you call him and ask.

Also, the benches on the boat (unless he has changed them) were designed to accomodate single tanks and the base of the tank rests below the actual bench; that helps to keep tanks from tipping over during rough seas. However, it also makes it a bit more challenging to work with large doubles.

With all that said, he runs a great charter.
