Why So Shy in the Panhandle?

"This boat has everything but a head."

All day long with no head?

Exactly. What does that tell you. You know any divers who can do 3 dives without relieving themselves? Maybe there's a 5 gallon pail aboard.

I dive in PCB, we go offshore, but only if the trip has competent divers. Sometimes really talented divers get on a boat with new divers. With those divers, it's just safer to go inshore. Bring some friends to dive locker, request and PAY for an offshore trip and off you go. You have to request it though...also check out killfishcharters.com out of Port St. Joe. He goes out to the deep wrecks near PCB.

Did that last year with a dive club out of North Alabama (Dive Locker). We had an instructor and 2 rescue divers on the 6-pack and three other experienced divers. Requested the Akkokeek or Chippewa. Paid for the off-shore dive :light: got the Strength and Bridge Span.

Sea Diver (also books through PCDC or call Mary at 334-774-3483) frequently hits the wrecks. Accokee, Chippewa, Stage 1 are some they like to go to in addition to the bridge spans.

Also, a 6 pack I dive off a lot is the Sanctuary. If you want the wrecks, Bil will take you there. These days you might face a little higher fee for the wrecks farther out due to fuel costs, but if you book the boat & tell him what you want, he'll take you where you want so long as the conditions allow it.

On a six pack, I usually relieve myself over the transom rather than squeeze into a tiny head anyway.

Actually, the crew has to hold Bug Man over the transom so he can relieve himself. Otherwise he'd just make a mess!

I prefer to dump the sea pickle before I get on the boat so it's not an issue.

 

[PerroneFord]

Two problems.

1. Women don't have the same luxury of "holding it over the transom".

2. Occasionally you might have to more than can be done standing.

2. Like Wayward Son, predive dump keeps the turtleheads away.

1. Peeing in your wetsuit is as generic as it gets
