Beyond Artifacts: The Andrea Doria before “Technical Diving”
The author of Setting the Hook, A Diver’s Return to the Andrea Doria offers a personal perspective of a unique period in the amazing evolution of wreck diving. Peter Gimbel’s 1981 commercially backed Andrea Doria expedition caught the attention of divers the world over. Travel back to a tipping point in the popularization of deep diving as the Andrea Doria is explored in a time before sport use of mixed gas or formal technical training.

The Andrea Doria: Ship and Shipwreck
What was it like to explore the “Mount Everest of wreck diving” a decade before the term “technical diving” was coined? The dramatic 1956 collision with the Stockholm and sinking of the Andrea Doria have long captured the imagination of maritime enthusiasts and divers alike. Join the author of Setting the Hook: A Diver’s Return to the Andrea Doria on a thirty year journey through the famous liner’s history above and below the waterline.

Thanks and I hope to see you there!
Peter
