Joseph. A bit of advice.....update your profile with some more infomation. For anyone to consider picking up a stranger for a day of diving, and ultimately trusting your life with, it would be nice to know your level of experience. Maybe add a few more pictures to show you don’t look like some psycho. You’re offer is a good one for anyone who can’t afford the $150 boat trip. But it obviously begs the question ’if this guy can afford to pay for my trip, why can’t he afford a car.’
I’ve met quite a few people on this site over the last few weeks whom I’ve had the pleasure of diving with already. May I suggest a taxi? Once you meet some of the people on this site I’ll bet you’ll either (a) find someone willing to give you a free ride home, or (b) find someone willing to carpool if you at least taxi to their house.
Just my $ .02. Good luck.

Thanks for your advice.
I have some fam. photos that I should up load, I live too far for taxi I was looking for divers in my area that could pick me up on their way. I should also up date my info. I hold and advanced diver cert from PADI and I’m working on rescue diver. I’m making 2 dives in Laguna beach CA. with another DiveBuddy.com member (grudge) on midnight the 27th for the opening of lobster season, I can have him reply to this post and put in a good word that would help as well.
As for my not having a car, it’s a misunderstanding; I have several cars one still has paper plates from the dealership on it. I have too many points on my driver’s license (speeding tickets) so the state of California suspended my D.L. for six months I can drive again in December.
IF ANY ONE HAS ANY OTHER Q’s DROP AN E- MAIL I WILL GIVE YOU ALL THE INFO YOU LIKE!
IM NOT A CREEP! LMAO!

Sorry. Didn’t mean to paint you as a "creep." Just noticed that no one had replied and thought I had an idea to get the ball rolling for you. Yeah, Lake Elsinore is a bit out of the way for me in Glendale, but maybe someone out in Corona will read this and give you a lift. Good luck with the Rescue class. I’m doing my Rescue next month. Just picked up all the books. Once you’re more mobile in December drop me a line. I’m diving at least twice a month. More if I can find people available during the mid-week. Enjoy the lobsters this weekend. I wish I could indulge, but my wife’s deathly allergic. Just thinking about all that melted butter...... :-) Stay wet!

I fully understand & thanks again for your help.
I would like to do some oil rig diving or Catalina islands dives. I can get a ride from my G/F when ever (I still make the payment on the car). If you set up a good dive like a 3 tank to the oil rigs or Catalina Island, I’m in like Flynn.
I was even thinking of taking a helicopter over to Catalina & taking the charter boat that leaves out of Avalon Bay. How bout that?
