Shadow Divers: John Chatterton's Interview with ScubaBoard

[pir8]

Bob,

BTS was a last minute stop for me. I was only there for the last 4 hours on Sunday, regardless I had a lot of fun and saw a bunch of friends. I am in the DR right now, but I promise to sign your billboard next time. I need to tell the other Bob Marx that you are using his name???

Cheers

Well it certainly was appreciated that you took the time to come up and say hi for the time that you did. Thats a long way to come just for the day.

Although I had fun, I also wanted to stop by at the SUDS booth and show my support, even if it was just for a short while. Somehow, it ends up not being that long a way after all.

Cheers

So John, I ran into Capt. Paul Regula from the Bounty Hunter in NJ and he said he's dying to read Shadow Divers but still waiting for his autographed copy.

I thought it was a pretty powerful, yet amazingly honest. We can all prepare for a dive at length, and double check that everything is functioning properly, but when things start to go bad the mind has a way of completely clouding logical thought. Like John said in regards to the Rouses, despite everything that happened in the sub they could have made it back to the surface with a drastically different outcome, but Chrissy bolted and it cost 2 lives.

Thanks again John!!

That Richie is a smart feller.

I have no problem with that, but he is a tough guy to catch up to??

I have a lot of respect for the SUDS program and wish I could do more to help them. At the present time I'm more in with the HSANJ group and looking forward to working with the Wounded Warriors and the DEMA pool with Big Wave Dave, in July at Rockaway Yacht Club. Only so much time to give.

on the subject of Shadow Divers I would like to say that this book changed my life. as soon as I finished the book I started to learn to dive ( now Advanced Open going for Wreck / Nitrox ) and to get over my fear of fish I did a Shark Dive in the Bahamas. I met John & Riche last year at Beneath the Sea in N.J. Where they signed my copy the guys were great and down to earth.
I think the diving public will love this movie, its the waiting that driving me nuts it was surpose to come out in 2008 but now is pushed back to 2009. stay safe and which were gages
