Hey Lobstaman,
We left the ramp at 8am. Just missed you. 30-35' is a good size. Its been 15+ years since I dove the Pinthis. I remember looking up from the bottom at the dive boats the vis. was so good. I think it was alot more intact then too from the reports I have read here. Will have to do it again soon.

Dennis, I dove the Delaware with Tom when I was 15. Had just finished my dive certification and it was my first boat dive. We have dove on it many times since. As a matter of fact he has most of the brass letters to "Delaware" from the stern. Also he has partly spelled "Philadelphia". If anyone has come accross the any more down there he may be interested.
 
Viz is worse now, but still not bad for these waters. It was my first dive on the Pinthis, but I'm sure more holes have opend up along with additional settling of the wreck over the years. I'd like to get back there soon and try out my new dry suit. I was diving wet and it was a tad nippy on the wreck.
