Night dive with Ben

It's time to plan another night diving event! I'm thinking two dives this time- one evening dive at Breakwater, followed by one nighttime dive at McAbee.

I'm thinking it would be good to meet and brief the dive at 5:30, and start the first dive at 6:00 pm. We would plan to be out of the water at 7:00 pm, and back in at 8:00 pm. Sunset is at around 8:10, so it should be dark shortly after we enter for the second dive.

As always, I'm flexible about any of these plans. If you'd like to propose something different, I'm all ears. I just want to get us out diving and having fun!

If you've been meaning to head out with this group for a while but haven't gotten around to it, this is a perfect opportunity. At night, the rocks explode with color as shrimp, crab, and other exciting creatures come out to play among the anemones. Octopus hunt along the sandy seafloor. It's an exciting time to be underwater. For those of you who haven't discovered the joys of diving McAbee, it's hard to be underwater without a seal joining you for the dive.

ADDED BONUS: I'll provide plenty of hot cocoa for chilly bodies in between dives. And I'm bringing marshmallows :)

A few things to remember: bring a tanklight so we know where you are. Bring a flashlight so you know where you are. Bring an extra light in case the first one burns out, and you forget where you are.

Feel free to RSVP maybe, but know that for cocoa planning purposes, if your response still shows maybe on Friday, August 7, 2009 at 6 pm, I'll be counting you as a "no."

I look forward to seeing you there!
