RMO - why you should make a trip out to Calif!

[DandyDon]

BTW, Don, I'm going to Cozumel 27 Oct thru 3 Nov - the first time I've dove there (besides snorkel). It will also be my frist time drift diving. I was on a liveaboard in Bahamas end of June.

The Explorer? You'll love Cozumel, especially if you dive with a good 8-pack and dine in town. Drift diving is cool, just steer, be sure to carry signal devices. Well, that goes for any ocean.

Yes, I was on the Caribbean Explorer the last week of June, with a bunch of Texans

I'll be going with my LDS to Hotel Cozumel and diving with Dive Paradise.

Cool, going on the Explorer with Singledivers.com for New Years. Not a plug - the trip sold out as soon as it was announced.

Ok, it's good to do Coz with a packaged group, but next time DIY - also a good approach, more flexible, cheaper, smaller boats, better dining in town. It's all good.

Now back to kelp diving...!!

Hot dang - let's get two of these, one for Denver, one for ABQ, leave the sport cars behind so we can haul tanks and dive bags. I'm sure their solar powered....

you know there is a dive shop in Phoenix (Scuba Sciences) that rents a bus once a month and dives off the Sand Dollar for scuba cert classes, etc. They just throw all the dive bags underneath and fill the bus up! Great idea I think but then it is only about 6-7 hour drive for them to LA.

Is anyone putting together a trip for the Nov. 9-11 Catalina deal? I am seriously interested in doing this one. Who else is thinking of going then?

Hope to see some of you there.

Seaport Village is a very nice place, stayed there last time - and that's a great price - including ferry rides, local transport, breakfasts, and all. Sounds like great fun.

Package Price = $115 per person includes ALL applicable taxes!

You must mention ScubaBoard to get this special price!

Call (800) 222-8254 to make reservations

Beach dives with the locals at the park with rented tanks & weights, meals & camaraderie, Sunday maybe hook up with a local charter...?

Need to check on my local dive buddy, flights, etc. Could be doable. I'm thinking Nov 1/Thursday flights, 4 nites, Friday & Sunday boat dives, Nov 5/Monday return flights.

Thanks for the link Dave, sounds like an awsome trip.
