Roll call for Diving for Science training this weekend

[carrielsal]

We discussed this as a hijack on another thread. Who is going to be in the class this weekend?

Janet and I will be there. If it's really cold, I'm in huge trouble!

 

[Texas Torpedo]

Alex (andercb1) and I will be coming in Friday night, so add 2 more to the list. What the heck happened to the 65-72 degrees they were previously forecasting for San Marcus on Sat?

How close are the hot showers to the water?

There is a hot shower right by the training area. What I took this class last winter, I spent a great deal of time during SI's standing under it.
I will be in the DS, btw, so it will free up the shower for you and Janet.

Carrie, I'd like to take you up on your offer to try on your dry suit, and extend it through the weekend if possible.

 

[Mack Diver]

Navychop and one other customer from Oak Hill Scuba will be there.

You can try it on Sunday at noon.

Peppermintpaddi and I will be the DM's. I just got a call form Eric. He said that the last dive on Saturday would be at 5pm, but I would still advise everyone to bring a light.

Depending on the group, amount of volunteer divers, and scuba classes going on, you might not have the best hot showers. I took the class a year ago, got a cold shower, even saw a mofo in a drysuit taking a hot shower (before we got in). If you are wearing a wetsuit, and you see someone taking a hot shower in a drysuit, take them around back and hit them with your weight belt a few times.

70*F water temperature are very nice this time of year.

Has anybody done a 100 minute dive at Aquarena?

I'll have to check my logbook - but I think I might have done one a while back. If not - it was real close. Heck - I'll just do one next weekend while I'm there.
