Anyone planning on diving in the PM? My gills have dried out and need a good soaking.

I'll be there for dive 1 with paulicarp and a brand new diver.

Let me know what time if you don't mind me joining.

The first dive is around 4:00 and the second one around 6:30. I'm planning to be there too hopefully for both.

Awesome. As Vlad pointed out Dive 1 is a 4L00 splash, dive 2 is around a 6:30 splash if there are people wanting to do a second dive.

Dude, that's what MMM is all about! Think of it like a mini (very mini) club dive.

I'm out today. Didn't get my zipper redo, redone yet.

Vlad. Thanks for posting the times... they sound familiar. I guess I was too lazy to look it up ;-) I'll be there and ready to splash at 4.

I'm still trying to get permission without eye-rolling and sarcastic remarks... :angry:

You're welcome to join us Emily, we have at least one other very new diver who will be with us.

I'll be there for the 1st dive only.

If I can get my new webbing threaded through my backplate, and move all my gear into my car soon, then I can probably make it for dive #2

EDIT: confirmed coming for dive 2

Great dive #2 Dennis and Vlad! And Vlad, can you send me the pics you took? Id love to see them

Viz: the deeper the better. 25ft+ at 120, on the way up 15ft-ish, the bottom of the geodome was still ok to 70ish. Top of Geodome was maybe 10ft and progressively getting worse to zero at the surface.

TONS of crab and the usual ample rockfish & gobies. 2 juvie wolfies, a small octo, and a grunt.

We said hi to the man for yalls.

OH, AND A CANDY STRIPED SHRIMP!!

Funny place to see your first one.

I would love to do a dive profile like that one again some time. I like being at the Geodome 50 minutes into the dive and being able to hang out for a while there. Plus, its just fun to weave yourself in and around the geodome! Nice buoyancy/trim/kick practice.

And, for those who say "no pictures - didn't happen", and for all others - the pictures!

Did any one loose fin, mask and snorkel? I don't want to disappoint you but they are now part of a habitat.

Ok, some weird shift must have occurred in the sound between dive 1 and dive 2, because there's no way those pictures came from the same dive site I was at for dive 1.

Amazing pictures Vlad!

I concur. With the viz we had at the Dome, those are stellar pics. Then again, as you go deeper, the viz really opened up. Cool! Bottom line is, Vlad, you do take very good pics.
