Hood Canal O2 is so low that.....

Post by mz53480 »

Apparently there's some sort of O2 problem in Hood Canal. I talked to a few divers today that were out that way and it doesn't seem so good.

I know it ain't funny. But.....let's lighten up a bit.
So.....this is a take-off from another thread
and goes something like this:

Hood canal O2 is so low
How low is it?
So low that I had a wolf eel signal OOA and I donated my reg to him.

you get the idea......
...I like going to the chamber.. They have great food there, and awsome live music "H20doctor"
Check out the VIDEOS!

It's so low that even "Chicken Little" won't dive in the Hood Canal!

The O2 was so low at Sund Rock that I finally realized the reason for being slowed on my dive was the two ling cod and 4 rock fish that were buddy breathing on my octo!

The Hood Canal O2 is so low, that I use a bike lock to prevent my O2 deco bottle from being stolen on a dive.

Hood Canal O2 is so low that yellow oxygen masks may deploy from the ceiling compartment located above you. To secure, pull the mask towards you, secure the elastic strap to your head, and fasten it so it covers your mouth and nose. Breath normally. Even if the bag does not inflate, please keep in mind that oxygen is flowing. Please make sure to secure your own mask before assisting others.
