S.S. Florida - May 2007 This video was taken in May 2007 on a trip to Presque Isle, MI. We dove the SS Florida. This wreck sits in 190 feet. On May 21, 1897 while carrying a cargo of flour and general merchandise, she collided with the even larger 281 ft wooden steamer George W. Roby cutting a gash into her starboard side. She sits upright and intact. The stern is collapsed exposing the triple expansion steam engine with intact gauge panel and towing bit. This wreck offers some nice penetration. S.S. Wisconsin - May 2008 This video was taken in May 2008. We dove the SS Wisconsin. This wreck sits in 130 feet. The SS Wisconsin sank on October 29, 1929 due to a northeasterly gale. She sits on her keel in an almost upright position. In her cargo hold sits three vintage automobiles; a Hudson, an Essex, and a Chevrolet touring car. The Chevrolet can be seen in this video. Presque Isle - May 2007 In May 2007 I spent a few days in Presque Isle, MI. We dove many wrecks in the few days we were there. This video includes shots from the Cornelia B Windiate and S.S. Florida. The wrecks were in the 180-200 foot range. We spent 20-25 minutes of bottom time on each one. These are amazing wrecks and I can't wait to go back again. Ice Diving - February 2007 This video was taken in February 2007. We spent this day diving our favorite local quarry. The ice was about 12" thick and the air temperature as around 20F. The water temperatures hovered around 35F and brought along some great visability. The viz must have been 100+ feet. We laid about 500 feet of line under the ice on this dive. Total dive time was 90 minutes. Ice Diving - March 2007 This video was taken in March, 2007. We decided to try and get under the ice one more time before it was going. Air temeratures were slightly higher than in February, around the 35F mark. Ice was melting. Instead of cutting a hold, we were able to break the ice up around the shore to get under. Visibility wasn't as good as February, but still 50+ feet in our quarry is pretty good. Dive time was 75 minutes. Scooter Diving - 2008 This video was taken in the summer of 2008. Rob has purchased many scooters over the year, so Tony, Rob, and myself decided to play around with them on day at Haigh Quarry. Everyone had a blast.
