<div dir="ltr">Oh my, how I wish I had Shackleton ready to join you! I'm making good progress and could conceivably be back in the water just a week or two after the dates you mention, but that will only be the start of shakedown tests in very controlled conditions and nowhere near ready to do ocean dives. Like Alan said, I too have the fondest memories of the convention in Islamorada and your family's boundless hospitality. All the best, and please do send us all updates!<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br>Alec<br><div><br></div><div> </div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 28, 2016 at 10:32 PM, Douglas Suhr via Personal_Submersibles <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org" target="_blank">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hello gang, just a couple of quick updates...<div><br></div><div>Snoopy will be on location for diving in Islamorada, FL October 17 through 22 - anyone who can make it is welcome to attend / support / bring a sub (we can davit launch).
