Edmonds Underwater Park Nov 16 or 17

Post by Justin.K »

Looking to check out Edmonds Underwater Park for a one or two tank dive. I am available mornings this weekend Nov 16 and 17. Have not dove Edmonds before so recommendations would also be appreciated.

I will join you on Saturday. I have to warn you though... This would be my first time diving at Edmonds. I've only been to Alki Cove 2 and Mukilteo.

Hi!

Is there room for a third diver or you would rather keep things simple?

If you don't mind a third diver I would rather dive on Saturday, the weather is supposed to be better than Sunday. I dove Edmonds few times and my knowledge of this site is a bit limited. It is a large area and I am wondering if you are planning to use scooters. I am a recreational diver who uses steel tanks (100 and 80).

Please reply to this message as soon as possible so I can make plans accordingly I have to drive from Whidbey Island.


Thanks!

cheers

We are planning on Sat around 9 or 10. I don't think we will see the whole park, and were just planning on swimming. Give me a call tonight and we will try to sort out the details. 562-522-5616

Marine weather says wind from SW 15-30 kn tonight, 15-25 kn Saturday, from S 10-15 kn Sunday. So it will be stirred up and a long rough swim Saturday, easier Sunday with slightly warmer and little more chance of rain.
I can go either day 9 am and have many dives at Edmonds. Pick up a chart of the park at Underwater Sports in Edmonds, it helps pay for park materials.

Just saw the last post, will call. DanR

Is the clock on this site still on daylight savings time?

I guess the weather keeps changing I was hoping for some sunshine on Saturday but now it doesn't look like. So ohopdiver as you mention Sunday is now a better day then Saturday.

Yeah I don't think I can make it tomorrow. I was hoping for better weather and more people to join us since it's my first time. :( I'll try to fix my broken dishwasher instead. Please let me know how it goes!

And it changed again. 3 am marine weather report has light winds Saturday morning increasing Sunday.
Not suggesting a plan change as Sunday is still OK.

If the dive is still on for tomorrow (Sunday) I might come out and join in on the fun.

I hope the dive went well. I went crabbing at Mukilteo and it wasn't very good :(

Sorry you missed it. It turned out very nice. I reported in a new thread.
I'm ready most any time you want to give it another try - send me a PM.

Thank you very much for being our guide Ohopdiver :) ! I saw features of the reef that I have never seen before. I also never seen so many cabezones in one dive before. The wooden wreck is my favorite site. I could spend a whole dive there hanging around with all those fishes in the attempt to make friends and get a decent picture. I definitively want to go back there.

I am glad that the star fishes that I saw were healthy.

The wood wreck we were on is the tugboat Triumph. I didn't see any eggs but those Cabbies are already getting their attitude on. Let me know when you can come over here to do it again - I'm ready. DanR
