Hank,

Seneca Lake, NY

Located south of Lake Ontario, east and a bit south of Niagara Falls

Max length 38mi

Apparently no tropical reefs, but lots of wine in the area.

Seneca is one of the finger lakes, in upstate NY. If you made it all the way there, yes it would certainly be fun to try to follow the sub down in a test. I tried to do that once and couldn't stay within sight, but it was in miserable visibility. It should be feasible at Seneca.

Alec,

Where is Senica Lake, would you like me to escort your new sub to the bottom?

Well... I vote for Seneca Lake. Lots of reasons: 

 

- Super visibility (more like incredible visibility) which is resistant to rainy weather

- Support from local dive club and business community - we've got good contacts from Snoopy dives, and a long precedent established by Harold Maynard

- Proximity to the great lakes has always produced good attendance of subs based in that region (Gary Sluis, Dan Brewer, Les Katschor, etc.)

- A local PSUBS member (Al Secor)

- NOT a Corps of Engineers lake, no harassment

- And last but not least, sufficient depth for conducting the depth test of my new boat!

 

 

Best,


Alec

Steve,

 

I have heard nothing of anyone planning a convention. I would be willing to help if there was a interest.

 

Thanks,

Scott Waters

All, I am thinking about what excursions I might need to plan this year and hadn't heard much about a potential convention. So I thought I would ask.

I believe we were kicking around some ideas but wasn't sure where we stood.

Thanks,
Steve
