Does anyone know where we can browse some picts of the Texas Clipper underwater...after it was reefed? I'd like to see what all the hoopla is about regarding how she settled on the bottom.
 
Check the CHUM Gallery from our First on the Clipper inaugural dive.

Here's an interesting photo. In the backgound, that is Dale Shively (TPWD project director) climbing back on the Spree after his final checkout dive. I wonder if he felt any pressure to give it the final clearance, with a dive boat 50 feet away carrying 20 divers all suited up?

Can we dive it now? Huh? Huh? Can we dive it now?

Reef you guys took some great snaps!!

Have you heard any word on how the paying charters have been going since CHUMS dive? Curious to how busy they are.
 
I haven't heard but reading between the lines, not great. I saw a quote by Tim at American in one of the stories where he seemed to express disappointment over the Clipper not being upright, saying they had hoped it would keep charters full through December. But that's just a WAG on my part. And it's not really the diving "season", the real answers will come next summer.
