Hey Scott, thanks for the report and its great to hear Trustworthy is all set. Pretty much the same here, I've just got a couple of totally minor things to do but Snoopy's essentially ready for the trip already. For those of you not aware, we are planning a joint two-sub trip to Seneca Lake in the first week of June, in collaboration with the local underwater preservation association. They are most generously providing lodging on waterfront property, surface support, and most importantly local knowledge and a list of proposed dives. I'm hoping we can make a "wrecks of Seneca" video. It should be a blast, and we hope to have an update/video for the convention as its just a few weeks after the trip.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Best,<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Alec<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Mon, May 11, 2015 at 3:11 PM, via Personal_Submersibles <<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org" target="_blank">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black'>For those of you that don't have me on face book, I figured I would post a dive report from yesterdays dive.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black'>I took Trustworthy out to a local lake that normally has no visibility to test her new lights and other modifications and additions. It was a near flawless dive with the acceptation of the chop and the wind that was terrible and made the loading on the trailer a little difficult. We did a series of three dives with the first one being about 30 minutes, the second one being about a hour and the third one was about 30 minutes. The water was the clearest I have ever seen in Milford lake with a visibility of about 5-6 feet. The sonar works flawlessly now (after tons of working out bugs for the last 2 years) and was beyond what I expected!!! We passed a mudding truck tire and I kid you not, I could see the tread of the tire through the sonar!!! My new 10,000 lumen headlight and four 2,000 lumen flood lights worked extremely well and could be seen from the surface even at 30 feet of depth with a eerie glow. My piloting skills even improved with being able to glide just inches above the bottom with only bumping into a few things. I tested the OTS system to about 500 feet away from the surface support and worked well with a little more back noise than I would like, but I think some adjustment to the squelch should improve that. The waves out in the cove were choppy and about 2-3 foot waves, but Trustworthy did quite well with them. I got to say, the tall con makes a huge difference. I thought I would share with you all the awesome dive we had and we are officially ready to go to New York!!!<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black'>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black'>Scott Waters <o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><br>_______________________________________________<br>Personal_Submersibles mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org">Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org</a><br><a href="http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles" target="_blank">http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p>__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 11576 (20150505) __________<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p>The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p><a href="http://www.eset.com">http://www.eset.com</a><o:p></o:p></p></div> <BR><BR>__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 11576 (20150505) __________<BR><BR>The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.<BR><BR><A HREF="http://www.eset.com">http://www.eset.com</A><BR> </body></html>
