Weekday dives

I know some of you guys get out during the weekdays and people aren't always available. I'm a teacher so I'm free most weekdays during the summer hit me up if you need a plus 1!

Yea I’ve been doing a lot of solo diving lately and even though I’m safe my family would be a lot happier if I dive with people. I mostly dive OC and LA but I can always make some trips down to SD!

Re: Weekday dives

I usually have monday through Thursday off. I'm 27 freedive 1 and 2 certified. Would love to share gas for trips and get some yellowtail. I know where they are at and I'll bring the beer 😁

Re: Weekday dives

I'm a loner as well. I think it is just easier to manage. I am careful who I take on my boat. Most if not all the guys I have dove with are cool, but I guess that is why you own your own boat.

That’s understandable. It’s enough to worry about yourself, you don’t want to be worrying about the people you brought with you.

I had a new guy out last week, made it clear not to dive before I gave the ok, and engines are in neutral. I turned around and he was 100’ behind the boat...

Oh boy, definitely not something you do the first time on someone’s boat.

Are you sure he didn't fall off the boat?

Re: Weekday dives

Teacher too. In LBC. It would be kinda cool to get teacher group going. Would make possible trips and doing cool stuff waaaay easier with our schedules and summers off.
Perhaps we could guste interest based on people’s response here.

Sounds like a good idea. I definitely would like some more dive buddies with a similar schedule for those longer breaks

Re: Weekday dives

Hello, I'm spear O from Fort bragg and coming down to So-cal for 4th of July to visit my friend. I'm looking for dive buddy weekday July 2nd-3rd. I dove Crystal cove and the drain pipe before. My limit is 30 feet. Was hoping to land a fish for dinner.

What wet suit thickness is recommend for this time of year? I took my 7mm and was way to warm and overheated last time. I have a 1.5 mm wetsuit for training in the pool.
