I read all the press about the accident and came to the same conclusion. I mean, that’s partly why you dive with a buddy, right? Maybe they shouldn’t have left the dive site but, if two were missing or if someone were there to help out things may have been different. The reality is that she never surfaced. Like you said, I don’t see how you could fault the boat for the accident itself.
I’m going to be in Long Beach about 3pm on Saturday, driving up from San Diego. I’m not sure how that works out for shore diving, but I was really hoping to get a boat dive in. I’d need a place to pick up a couple of cylinders and weight but, I plan on bringing the rest of my gear.
Any good shops in the area that you would recommend?
If I can’t find a buddy to boat dive on Sunday, I would for sure be down to do a couple of dives on Sunday.
I know you’re not committing just yet Rich but, your replies are much appreciated.
