I listed only the places I hadn't got a
firm "NO Way" from.

George,
If I
remember correctly, Palatka has some deep water readily available along with
the Grotto. How about the other sites you mentioned in your later
email? Will look on my Garmin charts to see if they show depths in these
locations. I appreciate all of the trouble you have went through to
compile this info.

I'll get it sent to you as
soon as I get my laptop fired up.
Also there are images that
you can see for water quality.
Not exactly the places
chosen but feed the places I've scouted.

and I?ll look it up in satellite images.

Did you ever get
those pictures of the central florida spots? I don't think I ever got a
response from those.

At this point,
you need to take a number and that number is 2010. So you have
plenty of time to finish that K-250. Here's the projected list of
convention locations for the upcoming
future.
2010 - Idaho (in January
maybe?)
Since we're on
the topic, I might as well let everyone know what we're planning for
2008. In 2008, George Kittredge will be 90 years old so we'd like to
hold the convention in Maine to honor him. The date would
be set to coincide with the annual "Maine Lobster Festival" (usually in
August) which is a weekend event involving parades, merchant setups, photo
ops with King Neptune and Blackbeard the Pirate, and even a "Sea Goddess"
pagent. This is a big shindig that the Navy and Coast Guard usually
participate in as well. And of course, there is the lobster.
For more info, visit http://www.mainelobsterfestival.com
There is LOTS of
water (sea water) around Rockport which should provide ample opportunity
for those wanting to dive. I'm hoping we can get a good showing of
submersibles to this event, stick George in the conning tower of either a
K-250 or K-350 that one of you owns, and then join the parade.
Afterwards it is a perfect opportunity to set up for static display and
show off your subs to the public. This is not a small event, so I
expect lots of curious onlookers. Probably in the fall of 2007 I am
planning on approaching the organizers of the festival to suggest they
consider in someway incorporating a tribute to George as part of the
festivities. If we get enough PSUBBER participation, we may be able
to convince the Mayor to proclaim one day as "George Kittredge Day"?
That would be fun. Also, the event sounds like it would make an
excellent "family" vacation for those of you who normally miss your wives
(cough...cough...) at our regular conventions, or want to bring your kids
for a fun time. You will see by visiting the festival website that
there are plenty of events and fun for all
ages.

How many PSUBers do we need again, to have a
convention here in north Idaho?? Ya know the lakes here
are amazing and we might be able to go down to Bayview, Idaho and see some navy subs if we ask
nicely. Like I said before I'll make a handmade pair of snow shoes for
any PSUBer that moves up here. So Joe, aren't you tired of all
that hot muggy weather and the hurricanes yet??? You could bring Jay
with ya. We'll make room for him and he can keep working for the Navy at
Bayview. : )' You would fit in like a quill in a porcupine. What
can I say, I'm a submarine half full kind of
guy.
