I plan on arriving at Gilboa around 10:00. If you see a red Ferrari F40 pull into the parking lot, it won't be me.

The scuba buggy is all loaded with everyone's items that they ordered from The Scuba Museum (free shipping). I even brought some Sea Hunt and 1958 shirts and hoodies in case somebody wanted some of them. We will be at Gilboa this afternoon and at the hotel in the evening.

I was under the impression this was at White Star Quarry, in Gibsonburg, OH. Did things change?

Mark,

You are correct, but we usually do a "pre-event" at Gilboa as it is deeper, clearer and on Friday open with an available compressor.

As you pointed out White Star is in Gibsonburg, about 25 - 30 min. from Bowling Green. The reason most of us stay in BG is that 1) we started staying there during the Portage Quarry Legends of Diving days, and know the place, plus Gibsonburg is about as large as a stop sign and a dairy queen, Fremont, BG, Findlay and Toledo are the more common places to stay nearby.

Hope to see you at White Star today.

George

ps looks like Saturday will be wet, both above and below the water.

Grateful I went, ended up having a good time. I dive there quite often, but was glad to be not the only one with vintage gear.

Had a great time with Scuba Heritage Days. Friday a pre-weekend vintage dive, or three at Gilboa with SeaHunt Jerry, his friend Chuck, Terry Stevens, Big Mike, Greg Barlow, Roger "Robohips", Dan, Rob and Bryan, then off to El Zarape for great Mexican. Vis was very good, easily 40'.

Saturday: White Star was wet both above and below the quarry, but between Rich C. and Jerry S. there was some nice vintage gear to be had. Rich and an unused Fenzy that held air and looked like it had been in dry storage for the last forty five years , and Jerry had a Voit Trieste J, nice stuff. Besides attendance by the usual suspects from Friday, WS also welcomed a new forum member, Mark. Dale dropped by with an unusual story of the loss and recovery of his dive equipment. Vis was exceptional for a September day at White Star, especially the far side by the beach. Rain came cold and hard though, morning and afternoon.

Sunday: I stayed an hour south of White Star (Homecoming weekend at Bowling Green State University = hotel rooms booked for miles around), so a few of us who were heading south went to Gilboa again rather than heading up to White Star. Weather was 100% improved over Saturday, but with all of the student divers, visibility wasn't what it had been on Friday, but the far end of the quarry still held some decent vis.

I made eight dives over the three days, used the Kraken and a couple of 50 Fathoms.

Thanks for all attendees who showed.
