<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;">Jon, with a 2020 Islamorada event, it would make three psub events this year: 1) 2020 Islamorda Psub convention, 2) Rostock Germany SubSeaSail European PSub event and 3) probably an InnerspaceScience.org expedition in Maine. Granted not all will attend all three events but some like me might want to. I am not sure how many would come to PSub convention with no diving event around a submersible. As an alternative, I would like to see us put off the Islamorada convention into 2021. By that time the Suhr's hopefully would be in a position to be able let us use there home in <span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;">Islamorada </span></span> as base station, you should be at a point with your new boat to bring it for sea trials and we could also include the technical presentations you mention. <br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;">Just a thought.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style=""><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="">Cliff</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br></span></span></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br></span></span></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br></div><div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;">Cliff<br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false" style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br></div>

<p dir="ltr">A non-diving convention (tech presentations & social activities) would still have value in my opinion. Seems like there have been several diving opportunities in the past few years but not so much on the technical presentation front. </p>

Last summer Cliff and I had started talking about another convention in the Keys. With two expeditions completed and a number of projects coming to term there is a lot of information we can sure.
