Dutch Springs 9/8 & 9/9/06

I don't normally post my dives from Dutch Springs, but its been slow lately, so here it is. It was my weekend to be a Dive Master for The Scuba Connection this past weekend. I found out from George that I was going to be working with him with a Search & Recovery class for both days. I was very happy to find out that the three students consisted of one instructor and two other dive masters. This keeps the "oh shit" factor way way down. No kids to babysit, no need to be in your face...just dive and let dive.

There was nothing spectacular to report other than I had my wrist seal on my drysuit rip from end to end on the first day. Lucky for me, the shop gave me a loaner for day #2 while my Oceanic Biodry went in for repair. I chose to have both seals replaced with the heavy-duty seals.

We did a total of four dives with a bottom time of 3 hours and 44 minutes. Now lets hope my suit is done soon so I can get in some real water.
