Hi Frank,
The planned years for future conventions are:
2008 PSUBS Convention Castine, Maine, USA
2009 PSUBS Convention Vancouver, B.C., Canada
2010 PSUBS Convention ???, Florida, USA
2011 PSUBS Convention ???,???,???
Meaning the next year that could possibly be used for a California location would be 2011.
There are not many psubs on the west coast. Any event would require a local to pull together the on site details.
Regards,
Ray

Hi Frank
Go for it, a convention in the Ventura area would be great. I'm sure
you now plenty of spots that would be even better.

Hi Randy. I know what you mean. Remember a couple
years ago when Silvercrest Submarines was operating a sub down in the
Galapagos and the Chilean govt. confiscated their sub and arrested some of the
guys involved ? I think the boat was being leased from Silvercrest by
someone else, and I'm not sure if they got the boat back or not.
I've dove the Channel Islands area and it's really
nice. Lots to see. There are quits a few ship wrecks there as well. I wonder
how many psubs are on the west coast. The Frappr map shows at least one guy in
So. Cal. but I bet there's more than that. Maybe we could get a convention
here in the future. There's lots of good launch sites, and many areas are
really beautiful, even in the shallow areas. Many guys won't take their boats
into salt water, but I think most of the coastal psub guys built theirs
with salt water in mind. I'll talk to Jon and Ray at the convention this year
and see what the chances are. Frank D.
