We're looking to do some rig diving off Port Aransas, but need a recommendation on WHICH rigs to try (looking for platform numbers or coordinates if possible. I've heard of rigs called "double yellow, blue goose and others, but I don't know where they are located!
 
I've always gone out with Out to Sea Adventures, so I can't you GPS Coordinates, but I seem to remember that double yellow, darth vader and the like are about 20 to 25 miles out from port A.
 
i'll be in corpus on 5-28 most likely. is there any rig dives going on?
 
Avation maps give the platform co-ordinates, as they show heilo pads.

MMS also has maps showing lease information and rig location. be aware that rigs are being erected and removed every day, so consider both types "advisory." New rigs can take a few months to build a population
