I know I'm going, TexasMike is going, and Texass is going.

Is anyone else from the Dallas area going who wants to carpool?

Who else is going?

Texass, are you driving yourself?

We will be leaving my place about noonish. I'll call the shop about then to get the go. Its gonna be a go. I'm positive.

I didn't realize, this boat is a BYO tank unless you want to rent or are diving Nitrox. I'm supposed to eb diving nitrox, but I'll probably bring one just in case.

Its also BYO lead.

What/where is spree:confused:

Is this someplace in the Dallas area?
 
The Spree is a boat not a place. It is one of 2 owned by Gulf Limited Diving out of Freeport that transports divings out to the Flower Gardens Marine Sanctuary in The Gulf of Mexico. This is about 110 miles off the Texas Coast.
 
I didn't know about the BYO tank. I opted for the Nitrox so I guess it doesn't matter. Heck I've had the cert long enough, I figured this is the time to use it. I will bring a tank just in case though.

I don't think I'll make the carpool. I'm so absolutely very important that it looks like I've got to be at a meeting Friday morning. Funny how they always seem to forget just how essential I am when I'm hitting them up for more money.

And yeah Twobit - it's a go!!! 1-2' swells predicted thru the weekend.
