We tentatively plan to drive to BC after Aug 9th, and did want to do some diving, likely on Vancouver Island. But Port Hardy may be too challenging for us. I am 54 years old and in pretty good shape and first certified in the lat 60's, but have only about 20 recent dives. Kathleen, my wife and Ariel, our 14 year old daughter are new divers with about a dozen dives each. Although our certification (and my re-certification) were done her in saskatchewan, in quite cold water, we've each done only a couple of additional cold water dives here.
So, i'm dropping you a line with the *slight* possibility that something could be worked out.
