New to diving Lanier, would like a buddy for when equipment is ready in a few weeks

[adder70]

So, I am getting my tanks hydro'd and my regs serviced (years since I dove) and I am losing 20 lbs ASAP.

My reward for the 20 lbs will be a trip back to the N Fl. springs for a couple of days of diving, and I'd like to get wet at least once before the trip. (I'd also like to make a habit of getting wet from now on!)

Anyone interested in showing me the lay of the water around June 11th?

I am ready to go,I can give you the twenty five cent tour. I usually dive off my pontoon boat,the rip rap on the dam would probably be a good place to start you out at,the water is clearer there than anywhere else on the lake. There is usually quite a few fish around the rocks in that area with a few fishing rods and boat anchors for a bonus. What types and thickness of wetsuits do you have,the water is still fairly cold 5-7 mm needed,a 3mm will work as long as you stay above the thermocline but would probably be pretty cool. Anyone else want to go let me know.

I am going out on Lanier tomorrow.

Things got so hectic I only just got my equipment back from service yesterday. Haven't lost the weight either. Oh well.

Still hoping to get wet soon, probably in August.

I have a 3mm with a 5mm hooded vest (and gloves; hightop booties might fit, but haven't worn them in a while.)
