Hiya. I live in Hartsville, SC. Seeking dive buddies. I am a fairly new but capable 41 yr old diver interested in all kinds of diving, particularly spear fishing. I have a small boat, using near shore with one buddy out of the Myrtle Beach area. I would love to find someone with a larger boat so we could get a little further out. I have a good bit of equipment and definitely looking to share expenses with some diving that is not restricted to what the dive shops offer.

I am very experienced fishing of of the Carolina coast... 20+ years from Winyah to the Gulf Stream. I had to sell my big boat due to transom failure last year. I may buy another 20’ - 24’ off-shore boat but really, the cost of operation/fuel has me considering other options.

So, how does this sound?

3 - 4 of us head out to a wreck for a dive, spear a few fish, troll for some wahoo and dolphin for a couple hours, hit another dive site, then maybe a little bottom fishing if we haven’t already reached our limit.

That sounds like a perfect day on the water to me!

Hey Chris! I just wanted to suggest something which is that if you don’t hear from anyone on here (as not everyone checks forums daily) but you’re ready for a dive.. send a private message to some of the members in your area or where you’re looking to dive. I’m sure you’ll get responses that way. Take care! PS. If we lived closer, Greg and I both would be there with you.. sounds awesome.

Thanks. I might try that... it seems these forums are not very active.
