Hi Folks,

I am starting on the details but I thought you might like an update. Here are the details as of today:

Cost
====
I have not figured a cost yet. This convention will be pricy. Crane operations is $150 an hour. Jacques Marc, President of the Underwater Archaeological Society of BC requested we pay for his ferry costs round trip from Victoria Island ($65 one way), crane operator requested lunch and I have yet to figure in food or conference room costs.

Perhaps at least $100. Perhaps a separate fee for those who are diving. No numbers yet.

How many of you are going to attend?

How many of you want to dive in one of Nuytco's Deep Worker or Aquarius?

Crane Limits
============

The crane will lift 9,000 pounds. Any PSUB coming that wants to dive must be lighter then that. OR LET ME KNOW NOW. We can get a bigger crane, costs will go up.

Lodging
=======
I was leaning for the Lonsdale Quay Hotel in North Vancouver because of its location relative Nuytco. However most of the activities will be at the south end of Vancouver at the University of BC.

What do you think? Close to activities or close to Nuytco?
