Does anyone here know anything about the three sunken vessels in Eagle Harbor on Bainbridge Island? I might be involved in raising them as mitigation for a dock project for the City of Bainbridge Island. I hear one of them is quite large.

Good times today! The crabs are in the pot. One was 1/8" under once I got it home and measured it, so it now lives in my marina. My regular email is jim@nwdocks.com. I'll be up for more diving next weekend.

I have two steel 130's and two Aluminum 80's. I can get the 80's filled with air and bring them for you. I'll call you in the morning to firm up plans. I'm heading to bed now.

You said you needed to go to the shop for fills, right? I am coming down from Anacortes.

Not the big, tall lurch looking guy who fills the bottles? See you at noon. I like my air with extra O2 in it, so I'll get mine filled in Anacortes ahead of time.

Yay for tires! Wanna meet at the dive shop? I assume you mean the one in OH.

Noon where?

I'm game for a dive on Whidbey. I've never done Langley. I will be going with the Anacortes dive shop on Sunday to Keystone, so I'd prefer to go somewhere else tomorrow.

That sounds fun. Last time I was there, I saw herds of crab. What time? What do I need to bring? I have my fishing license, and all my dive gear, but no scooter.

This post was originally for today. Now that today's gone by, I'm going to try to find exact coordinates for the old locomotive, and then create a new post to schedule a dive there.

Stay tuned...

A dude I took sailing a couple of times told me about it. He lives right by it. I will ask him if he can put us on it. It's a boat dive or a long swim.

Clear Lake here in Mount Vernon has an old steam train engine that went off a trestle and is sitting on the bottom covered with Bluegill and Bass. Anyone heard of this?

http://www.megavideo.com/?v=ZQ8WCWOB Just ran across this video by accident. I met a semi-retired work diver here in Skyline Marina who said he was 60' down and an Octopus decided to steal his mask and reg. He went for his octopus, and it was gone too. The thing rode his head to the surface as he di...

Thanks for the suggestions! I have 2 hp 130's ordered so I can start doing overnight, multi-day dive trips to the islands.

It's the 24th that's good all morning, not the 21st.

Current will be near perfect on the 21st. That would be a great day to do Deception Pass.

Uh. Yeah. In Lake Chelan. 5 days in a row for work.

I realize this is an old thread, but thought someone new might go give it a try. I hate going to places that aren't there.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this site has been completely destroyed by the great protectors of wildlife in our government.

James Island is my favorite overnight spot. There's a good dock on the West side in a little cove, and some nice hiking. When the dock is put away, there are two buoys on the East side. What part of the island do you dive?

What are some good "A" grade sites I can dive from my sailboat/RIB near Skyline?

I keep hearing that the Cone Islands are a beautiful dive site. Anyone have any info on them?

Mornings are going to be very slack this upcoming week. How about Thursday morning at Skyline? It's a bit of a drive for most, but a great pair of shore dives.

I'll be scooterless at dive 1.

I'm surprised an LED is capable of getting over temp. I'm probably going to go LED for a light since I am a wee todd about turning things off, especially a light on a sunny day. As for the reg blowing, it's nice it did it on deck instead of 90 feet down.
