So far, no casinos to dock at (although I remember a marina at one of the IoC properties on the river).<br /><br />We are, in fact, both certified divers, and we even recently purchased a kayak helmet for emergency work under the boat (nothing worse than having a heavy steel boat slam down on you in rough seas).<br /><br />We don't have tanks, but we will be putting together a "hookah" rig for boat maintenance and for diving in the ~30' range within a hundred feet of the boat.<br />Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17930398671280529448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-43647040995969547602013-12-14T11:24:16.563-05:002013-12-14T11:24:16.563-05:00Someone else may have already mentioned, but with ...Someone else may have already mentioned, but with all of these issues going on below the waterline (thrusters, anchors, etc.) one of you might want to become SCUBA certified. It's a lot of fun too besides being handy around the boat. I"m catching up on reading after a long absence. Enjoy your boating adventures as I have thought of a sailboat some day. Although Chris has vetoed live-aboard I may still eventually get a day-cruiser for the Keys.

They seem like good people, James the yard boss has been there 40+ years.It's funny we met you guys @ Trawlerfest in Feb., and our paths almost cross again.<br />We arrive on the 13th to take possession @ AYB and head south.
