Wicked Awesome Paul!!
Some day I've gotta get a West Coast Dive in with you guys.

Do you take a camera when you dive? I'd love to see some pitchures..

I am very interested in this. I have my advanced certification but have never actually done any cold water dives. I would assume there's a dive shop that I can rent a dry suit & equipment I'll need. Please let me know more details. Thanks.

Are you heading out this way Greg?

Yes there are a ton of dive shops in the GVRD. My personal fav is Ocean Quest

I would love to come out one day too. March 27 is way too soon for me though, got way too much going on and just came back from a warm place destination where I did some diving anyhow. But perhaps one day I can join you guys out there.

I think it would be way cooler to have a Canreef Cozumel Dive Trip some day .. although it wouldn't be colder, just cooler. And maybe more expensive than what you're planning.

Anyhow have fun on this one.

Hey Greg,

You have a place to stay if you can swing it to come out. Would love to have to experience cold water. It's actually not that bad. I only use a wet suit. Just make sure you pee in it to get it nice and warm. LOL just J/K. But seriously, don't swim behind me.

You can rent a suit and all the equipment here in Langley. I think there is a member on here that might have some spare gear that you can use. I can ask them if you are interested in coming out....for a small fee of course... (frags...cough..frags..)

Paul
