I think you should be proud too! I did a search on the web when you mentioned it, and didn't find any mention of it being found, but plenty of it still waiting to be discovered.

Got a dry suit? I've dove on January 1st already. Personally I run my boat until the first heavy snow or early December, whichever comes first. You just have to be prepared and keep the run times a little shorter. I've been out on some nice days in early December.
