WWW - 1/16/2013

Post by Mortuus »

In case you dont know what this is, here is a link with an explanation: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17214#p199333

In short, this is a weekly event hosted by GUE Seattle, but this event is open to ANY diver who wants to come out and dive with us, regardless of skill, background, etc. Yes, that means we do not require you to drink any kool-aid whether it be metaphorical or otherwise!
Need a "big buddy" diver? We will hook you up. We have many active recreational, technical, and cave divers who frequent these events and they are a great place to pick up extra diving knowledge! Additionally, if you would like to try out any piece of dive equipment whether it be a camera, bp/w, argon system, doubles, jet fins, canister light, undergarment, or even a scooter, it can all be arranged. All you have to do is ask.

Dive times are as follows:

Dive 1 - 4:30 to 5 splash
Dive 2 - 6:30 to 7 splash

Those are the splash times, so be sure to arrive with ample time to set up your own gear. If you need last minute tank fills, 5th Dimension is located right on Harbor Ave--only a 2 minute drive from the site!

The dives will both be held at Seacrest Cove 2 located right next to Marination at Seacrest Park on Harbor Ave on Alki. Directions: http://goo.gl/maps/eNMW7

Come on down and join us for diving! We also typically go out for food and beer afterwards. Lately it has been at Marination (modern Indo-Pacific), but we are also known to go to The Matador ("upscale" Mexican food) or Luna Park (50's style diner). So bring an empty stomach and a fresh liver!


JUST TO BE CLEAR...... It is up to EACH INDIVIDUAL DIVER to make sure they have a buddy for that night. If you need confirmation on whether there will be anyone there for x time of y time, then just ask! As long as there are people there at the time you want to dive, you should have a partner. The only exception is if two people have already made their own plans that involve something you may not have access to, such as a scooter. So just do yourself a favor and double check with people.

I'll make sure to be there for the 6:30 dive.

And if anyone needs any gear or would like try out stuff like canister lights, back plates, single tank back plate/wing or doubles, scooters, OLED computers/timers, etc. etc., please let me know.

See ya on wednesday.

and RSVP on this thread with the dive/time you will be there so we can make sure to wait and welcome you with open arms and a hug..

I'll be there.. come have fun!! weather should be good!

I'll be there for the early dive. If I come alone, I might do the second one (depending on cold). If I come with Peter, we'll probably do one and go home.

I'll be there for dive 2. I believe Bex will be there as well.
The purpose of life should not be to journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Holy S#it!!!" What a Ride!!!
