I might be able to dive with you around 0830 tomorrow in Edmonds. Wife comes home around 0800. Are you looking at 2 dives, or just 1?

BTW, I'd love to do 2 dives if we can get started early enough (e.g. 8:30) so I can get back early afternoon.

Checking the tides it looks like a 10 foot ebb exchange is beginning right at 8am for Edmonds. So it might be a little "currenty" (made up word) If anyone needs a buddy I am going to do an 8 am arrival and 9 am splash at Cove 2 tomorrow morning. I'm planning a deeper dive to 100+ then coming back up to check out the honey bear, whilst taking pictures. Anyone is welcome to join.

Hey dwinslow1, Rick Norris is absolutely right. Tides will be crazy about that time in the morning. I was in Edmonds today around 1430 and looked like it just got hit by a tsunami (tide is so low that you could see at least 12 ft. of piling) by the ferry dock. I don't mind the surface swim but it certainly will not be fun. By the way, I live in Edmonds, that's why I suggested diving in Edmonds. In don't mind joining Norris at Cove 2.

In case anyone is joining me, I'll be driving a Green Ford Focus and will be without a video camera (Thanks MZ), and I shave my head...so pretty much any video camera-less, bald dude, driving a little green Ford Focus with some dive stickers, will most likely be me.

If it is ok I may head up and join in the fun. I am in the south sound so if any one wants to car pool hit me up. That way we can both save on gas. Joe

i might come over and join along in this hit parade. I have 32 in my bottles, so I don't know how deep your planning on heading Norris, but if 110 is SAT I'll join you otherwise I'll just stay with a lil' shallower group. However I have done a lot of dives down the boundary line across to the top of the I-beams, and up the back plilings near the Honey Bear, but last week Brian and Jeanna introduced me to the dolphins. I'm always up for seeing new things in cove II.

Hey thanks for the dive today Jeremy and Coulterboy! Cant really beat a 55min dive seeing some nudis, 3-4 octos (one of which being out and about) and catching it all on film! Today is one of those days that confirms why I do this, glad to have shared it with ya.
Ill try and throw together a video tonight.
