Northwest Dive Club

Wow what a magnificent beast. 8 minutes, 5 divers hovering around blondie swimming around the I-Beams, curling nose to tail you can see how massive she really is. Suprising how rarely you hear of divers seeing them feed, they sure look well fed. Anyone? BTW you were really there D & B, you were ...

Thanks evryone for the kind words and shameless plugs

All the good things I have heard about NWDIVECLUB are true, this group rocks.

Let's go diving!

Sounds like a good class.
One of those "Hope you never need it, but if you do, you are sure glad you have it!"

The "dive" as you say in question did have all the proper notification with the authorities and Owner. The "dive" was done with Port Hole Charters and Captain Mike does charter to this location often and does do all the right things. ok, I ask becasue there has been rumors of di...

Hello NWDIVECLUB! I have joined, took me a little while for an intro. I love diving, my Dad taught me over a decade ago, I have spent most of my life dedicated to outdoor and underwater activities, and my fam. Beyond diving and diving instruction I enjoy Paragliding, snowboarding and kayaking, and a...

Very Good Dive.

What's the deepest the walls goes too?

(Text of this post edited by moderator John Rawlings) Regarding the dive in question, has UAS, VTS, and USCG been notified on the recent and not so recent visits to the SS Governor? It is our duty as divers who want to uphold a "Code" of responsibility to preserve such protected sunken art...

[quote="CaptnJack"]
In a nutshell, not counting security zones and Sand Point, there are no published regulations restricting diving in Lake WA. quote]

So by that rational, we could dive the wrecks near the 520 bridge without permission from DOT or Harbor Patrol?

I also agree, but Matt had indicated that we should be doing certain things regarding permission and since he has been diving these wrecks then he should know what they are and that is all I am trying to find out. Matt, if you do not have information, then that is fine but then it looks like all of ...

So from an outsider looking in: Wouldn't "don't ask, don't tell" be in everyone's best interest. DM yah I hear ya, and that's why I had no intentions to "tell", and I am still on the fence about it. I will most likely just get back to my own endeavors and cross my fingers that m...

yes I agree with John, and as I might have misrepesented my intentions, as John has expressed the same intentions. Dan is working today with the agency closely tied in to these wrecks, when they return I will clarify what regulations do exist in diving these wrecks, and will confirm that they reques...

ahh the forum interpretations. I just said contact scret maybe they will help you, I said let's preserve the wrecks by not drawing attention to them by taking photos of people compromising the line between visiting and tresspassing. If you doubt that diving these wrecks could be compromised by not c...

why is it evertime I post, I offend someone? Yes there are goverment agencies that can restrict unauthorized scuba diving in any body of water. I am not hear to explain the power of maritime law. If you would like examples I can give you better detail to how one group almost threatened future divin...

why is it evertime I post, I offend someone? Bob it is to my understanding SCRET has spent extensive time and effort making sure they go through the proper avenues. Yes there are goverment agencies that can restrict unauthorized scuba diving in any body of water. I am not hear to explain the power o...

Regarding the PV-2 tail section, we have been working very close with UAS in determining the cause of broken tail. So far, through several video sessions, cause and effect investigation, and specualtion, the tail was not removed my man and has fallen exactly where you might expect. As for anchor and...
