I have been on this boat often. A lot would be a better description. I have done mornings, afternoons, night dives, lobster dives, spear fishing, wreck and reef dives. I came on this boat when I shot a wreck by myself as part of becoming a PADI Dive Master years ago.

When I became dive certified, I came out on this boat with Mike Olson. We did a reef, he caught some lobster, and carried a spear gun.

I lost a lobster bag on this boat. Came up with a bag full of bugs, and at the dive ladder, had the clip break loose and the bag fall back to the bottom. This might have been easy to retrieve, but it was a night dive, my second, and I was down to about 800 pounds of air. A more agressive person would have thrown their body back to catch it.

Brighid has gotten out on this boat 3 times during 3 days of diving. 6 dives. And now she is certified. Here she is pictured not with Oliver, but with the new divemaster on Scuabatyme. Sad thing about Brighid getting certified, is she is her on a college weekend checking out schools. And she is close in size to the boats divemaster, who goes to college nearby.

Good to see her growing up, but sad to see her next to someone else for a reminder in a picture.

www.scubatyme.com The boat has changed owners from Gary, and the divemaster has changed from Oliver, but the fun of diving is still there.
