Scuba Shack Weekly – Volume 3, Number 27

Happy Fourth of July everyone. That kind of snuck up on us. It looks like we will be having terrific weather this weekend, so please enjoy responsibly.

Last Sunday Mike and I were at Plymouth Reservoir working with the Region Five Dive Team. We completed dry suit certification dives for several divers on the team. The water was quite warm and not too deep. Visibility wasn't good (well it was pretty bad). It did however feel really good to get back in the water.

Dutch Springs now has an official opening date of July 9. The details are provided on their website. We will be evaluating our schedule, plus discuss our comfort with the travel down there. There is a lot to consider when you think about having to stay in a hotel and then go to restaurants for meals. As soon as we decide what we are doing we will be letting everyone know.

We are also in the planning stage for our semi-annual tank purchase. We are hoping to get an order in by the second part of July. So if you are thinking about some new tanks, please give us a call and we will get you on the list. We try to bulk buy to save on the shipping costs.

Stay tuned to Scuba Shack Radio tomorrow (July 3) for a very special broadcast. I had a chance to connect with Amy Lee from REEF and chat. Amy is REEF's Engagement and Communications Manager, 2019 DEMA Wavemaker award winner, and taught Scuba Shack all we know about conducting fish surveys when we were in Key Largo last year.

Finally, this week's fish on The Fish and Things I've Found Underwater is the Indigo Hamlet.

Enjoy the 4th,

Jeff
