Hello all,

I am planning on going on a dive this Sunday to the tennis courts
in Bristol. Currently my mother, Tyler from USM, and Joe Buldoc have
confirmed with me to go. I would like to leave the shop early on
Sunday to get up there as soon as possible. The weather is looking
good for the A.M.

As always I will be doing a two tank dive because of the
distance. I will have access to the shop for people who need air, or
anything else. I will be at the shop on Saturday morning working
until noon if anyone needs anything then too.

Donny,
 
What time are you planning on arriving at the Tennis Courts?
 
I would like to join you, but I don't really want to meet at the Shop as it would add an hour travel to my day!  Is there a coffee shop or somewhere we could meet?
 
Also, high tide is at 3:40pm are tides to be considered? The weather looks pretty good right now.
 
I have never been to the courts, so certainly would like to join in on the fun.
 
If anyone is looking to carpool from Portland Area let me know so we can make arrangements.
 
Looking forward to another great dive season!
 
 
Thank you Donny for starting the conversation.
 
Be good,
 
Dan

I think we would be fine if we get up there early.  We will be working with incoming tide and we have options for entry.  We can meet you in Brunswick or Bath.

That works for me!
 
Should we meet at Frosty's Main Street in Brunswick?  What time 9 or so?

I was hoping to be in Bristol a little after nine.  I'll let you know on a time tomorrow.

Donald,
I would like to join the dive trip on Sunday. I would need two tanks and weight. I will come to the shop to pick up the stuff on Saturday morning.

I am looking forward to the first dive this year

Hey Guenter,
I will be at the shop on Sunday morning so you can get what you need then.  If you want to meet me there at 7:15 then that would be great.  We will be leaving by 7:30 to head out.

How about 8 a.m.  I'm not sure where Frosty's is at on Main street in Brunswick.  I'll call you when I leave the shop around 7:30.

Hi Donny,
thanks again for you effort to organize this perfect dive tour today. Although it was a bit rocky and slippery to get in and out, the dives were great.
 
Thanks Danny as well. I really enjoyed to be your buddy.
 
All: Find attached some pictures.
 
I am really looking forward to the next dive.

Great dive all around!

Donnie, thank you very much for taking the lead and putting together an incredible dive.  I will certainly be headed back to the Tennis Courts!

See you all next weekend for the Splash for Trash!!!!!

Be good,

Dan

No problem.  I wish the entry was a little easier, but that's why I wanted to make sure experienced divers went only.  I would like to head up ther again and try Rachel Carson too.

I am good with that!
 
Might I recommend we try to get there early enough to make giant strides off of the rocks at the Tennis Courts?  I would also entertain the idea of diving Rachel Carlson before the Tennis Courts.

I thought we were diving and eating up in Bristol.  One of the students has a place down the road from both dive sites so we can bbq right there and relax between dives.

It's a bitch to get in at low tide, but great underwater.  Rachel Carson salt pond is right around the corner too.  We can get 80 feet plus at each place.

I am diving with Guenter in the morning at two lights if anyone wants to join us.  We are meeting at the shop at 7 am and heading down.

Is anyone up for a mid week boat dive out of Cape Ann the week of the 22nd?  My friend Jeff from Conn and I are thinking of going.  Prob Cape Ann Charters who we did the sub dive with.
