You'd have to own it yourself though. AS doesn't carry passengers in those old -200s any more. Or, were you having a Fond Memory Fallback?Nwbrewer wrote:That's a 747. You need one of these -

After a beautiful, busy, but only getting damp summer it is time to start getting wet again. Who know? I might even make it down to SE. I've been trying for awhile but it just hasn't come together yet.

What if it's your first Dive in Sitka?
At Night!
In the Harbor!
And a 800 pounder starts smacking you around and pushing you down to the shallow bottom?
Yeah!
That was pretty Cool!

No time to play.
Dave,
It's getting that time of year again. I'm not sure if I can make it befor I go dive Hawaii in October. I have to come check out your new boat. Say hi to the family.
