SB INVADES THE KEYS... July 14-16, 2006!

[ReneeC]

Guy and I will be on the afternoon boat with Gary. I will have the rum tote with me (not on the boat but ready for after!) and some munchie or side dish for fri and for sat. Don't know what yet but it will be edible - and bloodless!

 

[sskasser]

Wow - I'd like to see how you like it ON TOP!!??...

I like it on top almost as much as I like getting lots of bottom time!

I'm diving the Eagle for the first time on Saturday. Any tips?

Don't follow the midship mooring line up... It doesn't go to the surface.

I can't really bring anything from Tampa. Unless someone wants me to pick stuff up when I get there. Rum, rum, chips, or rum. Sorry I am stuck on the rum bit as Moonie has to have his way.

Mango blondies made and chilled and ready to go.
Bringing some sacrifices to the rum tote godz.

Trying to think of anything we might need from Costco? Munchie requests?

Looks like things are calming down nicely.
Our local winds are slowing, and the buoy reports are appeasing.
Satellite loops show that trop wave moving on through.

All hail Mother Nature .... HOOOO-ahh-ahh!

Oh yeah, and your Moonie will need to cross eyes with my Loonie.

I'm from Vero Beach so it's hard for me to bring anything also...

I was thinking maybe an oversized thermos (water cooler...or...em...libations cooler) of rum swizzles to share with my fellow SB'ers? Or some side munchies? Chips or crackers? Any ideas? I'm going to Sam's on the way down...

Also, I called Conch Republic, the night diver's need to be there at 645 for a 715 departure. Per. Capt. Gary, who I heard in the background!

Did anyone by chance get a t-shirt made up for sale for the Invade the Keys???

As an ex-sorority geek, I'm usually pretty good at thinking of party favors WAY in advance...but not this time. If so, I'd love to have one! Lemme know.

 

[SFLDiver]

Hummm .... Costco ....

Pork Rinds ?
Skiddles ?
(both go well with Swiss Miss Instant Choc straight outta da packet!)

Bringing Velveeta and salsa to make the gooey chip n' dip concoction.

The Eagle is my Favorite Key's Wreck Dive!

Yea, - dive with a BIG Tank of NITROX and enjoy.
WEAR GLOVES - a must on all WRECK DIVES.

Go into the bridge in the stern and stand where the steering wheel would be - it's at a very odd angle.

The front section has some big swimthroughs between the holds.

Be the 1st one down and go to the split between the halfs - that's where you'll see the VERY BIG Fish [ Grouper, Tarpan etc ].
