what did use? Single tank or doubles? what size tank or tanks? minutes at depth?
 
Depends . . . on what I happen to have handy. Air, air and 50%, 32% and 50%, or just 32%. Typically only hit about 120fsw for about 30 min. or till I'm bored. Neat little dive. Enjoy.

Oh . . . carrying hp100's (doubles).
 
Dove with double HP 100s

40% Deco gas

I liked the wreck and I have been trying to get back there for 2 seasons now.

Double 100s - 30% - no special deco gas - and a very bright light cause It's been wicked dark on that wreck all season.

I usually use 30% nitrox with doubles and 50% for decompression. A little bit of helium is nice on this dive, but the deck is really at like 105-110' and it's an "easy" dive as far as sub 100 ft dives go, so I push it a little below where I would normally add helium. I typically do 30 minute dives or until bored (which is usually less than 30 mins on this dive) with a runtime in the 45 min range.

I have dived it on 21/35, too and will if it's what I have in my tanks.

Doubles? You tech stud. I still remember taking you down deep at Cat Rocks on one of our first dives together. After we surface, I only realized it was your first deep dive!

I have yet to get doubles. Has been on my santa list for a while. I just have a 30 CF stage bottle to go with my lp 112.
 
The minimalist approach:

Single HP 100.
21%

I didn't die.
