I don't know if anyone else made it out tonight, but there was a premiere screening of Racing Extinction, a new documentary from the makers of The Cove. It's a good explainer of the various ways humans are contributing to the sixth mass extinction event of Earth, with a strong focus on the illegal t...

It's last minute, but it's been too long since my last dive. Anywhere between Mukilteo and Redondo is fine by me. Flexible on time of day. Who's interested?

Thanks! By huge investment, I assume you mean the camera, in which case, yes.

Is there anyone we can contact at WDFW or in Mukilteo to get some sort of replacement site going?

I would like to tag along. My vote is for Redondo. But yeah, 6:30 splash is difficult. Fairly certain I can be there by 6:30 though.

This was one of my favorite dive sites too. I even mapped it out for my Divemaster course! Was very sad to hear this news.

Yes, PM me to arrange the meet.

I'm also thinking of doing Keystone on Sunday morning with Moss Bay. Maybe ill see you there?

Friday night maybe for Three Tree?

I can't make it during the week because of other obligations, but anyone interested in a dive over the holiday weekend to go look for the GPO nest?

ICYMI, I sent you a Dropbox link for the pictures you took with my camera by PM. (Finally...) Hi ScubaJess, DerekCs and I went tonight. Totally EPIC!! It was definitely one of my best dives ever... Seeing the octos try to swim up out of the den was so fun, we were cheering for them under water! On t...

I've known Peter now for a few years through Moss Bay, but I'm not sure I ever had the pleasure of meeting Lynne. I can only hope to leave a mark on the local dive community over the years anywhere near as positive as she did. My heart is broken for Peter and his family. My deepest condolences.

Hmm... I might be interested.

Hey DerekCs, Happy Thursday! Did you get any pictures from the AMAZING dive? Happy Friday! Thanks so much for letting me tag along the other night. Finally got around to finishing the photos today. I did not get as great of baby photos as the rest of you, but I'm happy with what I did get. https://...

We saw salmon? Which fish were those?
I guess that's how good it was. I don't even know all the cool stuff I saw.

So jealous you guys got these photos. If any of y'all are planning to go out looking for hatchings, please PM me? I'd love to tag along.

Spent some time down there last evening. They're still down there by the thousands. Unfortunately, vis was on the order of 3-4 feet, because they're so shallow and the plankton was thick. Took about 170 pictures ... kept 18. These were the best of the bunch ... ... Bob (Grateful Diver) Yeah, I had ...

Thanks, Janna! Good to hear from you.

Thanks for the compliments, everyone.
If anyone is interested in checking it out, - I have no idea how long it lasts - I might be able available Sunday. Feel free to PM me.

I saw several wasting stars at Redondo on Sunday. I'm forgetting what type they were, but they were pretty well wasted.

A stranger gave me the hot tip yesterday, so thought I'd pass it on. Redondo Beach. Go south (or left facing the water) down the beach past the fishing pier, out to this boxy townhouse with a flat roof. There's a house with a blue tarp on the roof a couple doors down. It's a good 5 minute walk in ge...

With no definite feedback from anyone gonna call it off.

Slack high tide is 8:11 AM. Then it's a going to be a very low tide going well into the afternoon.

Anybody up for a dive (or 2) followed by brunch? Meet at 7:30, splash at 8?
