Wreck Dive on the GA Venturo and Harry's Bell

The John Jack had a great weekend at sea, but nothing compared to Harry Maisch’s.  Harry, a student of mine, recovered the stern bell from the wreck of the Delaware.  It just goes to show that even the shallow in-shore wrecks like the Delaware, which gets hit hard during the dive season, have goodies to give to the observant and conscientious diver.  Congrats to Harry – and keep up the good work!  Let’s hope that Harry left something on the Delaware for us; the John Jack will be diving the Delaware this Friday.

On Saturday, the John Jack introduced some new customers to the thrill of NE wreck diving.  Dive conditions were ideal for late October: comfortable seas and water temps, and great visibility. For lunch, our chef de jour Big Larry prepared hot soup, mini bagel pizzas, and mini hot dogs.  When Larry wasn’t manning the galley, he set the hook and at the end of the day he pulled the hook.  Waytogo Big Larry, one of the John Jack’s multi-talented and valued crew.

The Big Red Boat is still running, so Come Out and Dive!  Don't forget to let me know if your joining us for our Halloween Boat Ride and Party.

Enjoy the week everyone. I'm taking advantage of the fine weather and the fabulous views from my home office window that looks out on the lake. The vibrant colors of the trees on the mountainside across the lake are one of the sights that I enjoy every Fall.
