The Roddenberry Dive Team presents
Mission #2: Red Shirt Dive - Night Dive on the Yukon & Ruby E.

Beam down to 100 feet and into the blackness of inner-space. On this away mission, everyone's a "Red Shirt"!

WHERE: "Marissa" Dive Boat - Seaforth Sportfishing's main dock (Quivira Marina)
DATE: Saturday, October 24th, 2009
TIME: 6:00pm Departure & 10:00pm Return (~7:00 "In-Water-Time")

Boldly join the Roddenberry Dive Team as we embark on the Marissa Dive Boat for 2 exhilarating night dives. The first will be to the Canadian Destroyer “Yukon" followed by the US Coast Guard Cutter "Ruby E."

DIVE #1: The plan is to be in the water and descending to down to the "Yukon" approximately an hour after the sun sets. For those who enjoy the mystery and excitement of wreck diving and those who enjoy seeing the uniqueness and diversity of life during night dives this will be an amazing experience to get the best of both worlds!.

DIVE #2: Once all "Red Shirt" divers have safely returned from Yukon the Marissa with take us to the "Ruby E." where we'll be able to explore the nocturnal underwater realm once again.

THE FUTURE OF DIVE PLANNING: One of the coolest things about this trip is that we are partnering up with “eDiving” to put together a dive plan using their VR simulation software. We hope to have more details about this in the very near future. In the meantime go to their website and check it out... not only is it a fantastic way to explore the underwater universe but is also FREE. Check it out here!

If you’re interested in joining us for the dive or have any comments or suggestions, please send an email to: rsvp@roddenberrydiveteam.com

DIVE GEAR/RENTALS: Water temperature ranges from the low 50‘s at depth to the high 60‘s at the surface. Generally a 7mm wetsuit is ideal. Divers must bring their own scuba gear except Tanks (Aluminum 80's) and Weights which are provided by Marissa Dive Charters. Divers are welcome to bring their own tanks and weight however due to limited space, we ask that tech divers leave their "doubles" at home for this one.

Rental equipment is available from a number of San Diego based dive shops. Here are a few I recommend:
Dive California
Sports Chalet

Ocean Enterprises
OEX Dive & Kayak Center


There are 10 Spaces available and the price will be $85.00 for Non-Members and $70.00 for Members.
