I may be gone by then, but it only takes four divers to put together a (heated-if-necessary) boat dive with Bill Routh. Last weekend I was the on-standby "fourth." You can also dive off the diver's ramp. So yeah, if I'm here, I'm interested. April, before the crowds appear, is a good time to dive there. Since they reopened the ramp in late Feb., I'm the only diver I've encountered there (yes, I found myself). As of Tuesday, I'm still getting 46 degree temps., but the previous weekend (off the boat) one of the doctors got 47.5 on 'the wall'. It's getting into the low fifties in the shallows. Bring drysuit. The boat is nice because when its snowing, there's a heater and when the sun's blazing, its completely shaded and breezy. Plus you don't have to walk up and down the long ramp which seems to get slightly longer every time I see it.
Teller, let me know when you get here and want to dive. I dive up there almost weekly as I live within 10 minutes from there.

Scott,
Its about a 3hr drive to the coast from Greenville. Its not a bad drive because its a straight shot and its Interstate all the way. There are at least two outfits in Charleston SC that run boats offshore. There are two in Wilmington NC that I am aware of. Meanwhile we have some captains running the Charleston rivers for scuba/shark tooth diving. I think Routh may still be running the rivers also
Cameron is still running offshore out of North Myrtle at Coastal Scuba.
The Murrell's Inlet group at "Scuba Express" is still active and growing.
