Octo Wednesday???

Post by Diver_C »

Can there be a third Wednesday in a row with large octos? Who's game?

And what's the flippin' deal with the weather??? Come back from Moses Lake, and it's as hot here as it was there, and as hot as it was here on Friday. :angryfire: I was looking forward to a cooler home, not this. Jumping into Puget Sound without insulation sounds appealing...

Yeah, I'll be there, but unless I bail on the second dive, you probably won't see an octopus..... :angryfire:

Okay epuffy, you know where the dive shop is, so grab your rental stuff and meet us there by 6:30 (usually curbside). Call me if you've got any questions!

Nailer, Cuppie and I are diving the Edmonds T-docks, I think its in Edmonds? But anyhow we are doing the T-docks. We are tired of diving the same place all the time. I think pretty soon my computer and compass will be permanently stuck on the same PSI and baring. :bounce:

Hi epuffy, have we met before? i new an epuffy once.

Have fun all, and dive safe

DAVE where are you Buddy?

Mmmmm.... Edmonds.... I love Edmonds, but may be too far for me for an after work dive. I'm still in at Alki to see the Octo if anyone else is. Let me know.

Not sure if we've met before, but i'm guessing probably not... you knew an epuffy before? I've never met anyone else w/ my SN before... i'm on Audi, Range Rover and now this scuba forum... maybe you are on one of those?

Maverick, I don't think you know where you're going. Do you mean the Oil Dock? There isn't an Edmonds T-Dock, as far as I know.

Isn't the T-Dock at Mukilteo? That is a pretty cool dive. I would like to do it again sometime soon. Crazy amount of crabs. Maybe some octos deeper.

I don't really care where we go. I did bring up Alki, so if people want to dive there this week, I should go there. It is very close to work, so that is very nice, and no trudging through I-5 rush-hour traffic. I like both places.

I'll be at Cove 2 tomorrow. Meeting Doug Stedding at 6:30 ... will probably get there around 4:30 and get in a dive before he gets there too.

Got 5 dives to go to hit 1,500 ... and I want to do that on Saturday in Neah Bay ...

:hello2: i can't come this wednesday, but i'd like to go diving this weekend and my normal buddy (my boyfriend) is out of town, so if anyone's open to doing an easy-going dive with a naui newbie, send me a pm. (i have to rent gear in kenmore and i have a test on monday that i'm studying for, so i'd prefer not to trek too far.)

Lawgoddess, I am always looking for an excuse to dive at Mukilteo. Let me know if you would like to dive at Mukilteo or Edmonds this weekend. I think those are both reasonably close to you. Of course anyone is welcome as always. Create a thread if you are interested.

Well everyone had a great dive, Epuffy has awesome air consumption. Good job Erik. I did not dive, Cuppie and I ate and lost the mode and bailed. We still had fun seeing everyone.

Grateful diver saw a Sixgill and got video of it.

Missed one again ](*,)
