I was wondering the same, with this crappy viz, it'll just be one long solo flight.

I have a reguest for the OP: If you do decide to call the dive because of bad viz, could you make that call by Friday night? It would be a shame to make the drive and not get to dive. :rjack:

Mateo, if we get up there and vis is crappy, I think Jeremy and I would be more than willing to do a backup site with you somewhere.

Sounds good! I will be doing a couple tweak dives on Saturday to get my weighting and trim worked out on the new rig. Fingers crossed that the crud settles out........ :angry:

The tides have cancelled some of the ferry runs between PT and Coupeville, so if you're coming from that direction be sure to check the WSDOT schedule.

[edit]... and I don't care about crappy vis. :breakdance:

That's when you know it's going to be a great trip from Driftwood to Keystone!
Viz? We don't need no stinking viz! :supz:

I'm comin' across on the 8am PT ferry, be there 9ish.

I'm assuming we're meeting at the starting point (Driftwood) and we'll figure out a shuttle arrangement for staging vehicles at the exit point. Please recalibrate me if I'm out of spec.
