Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Fort Pierce - Boat Ramp

[Jon Wallace <jonw@psubs.org>]

Update:

I've been talking to Bill O'Dell, a local resident who has offered to 
help us out with diving issues.  He's a scuba instructor, CPR 
instructor, and does some things with the Coast Guard as well.  He 
thinks he may have found a location for us with about 20 foot depth and 
also out of the way of regular traffic.  I'll be posting a new map soon, 
but if you look at the chart on 
http://www.psubs.org/convention/2010/diveloc/maps.html and find Dive 
Location #2, then look directly left from the RED #2 to the box shaped 
area showing 17 and 23 foot depth, this is supposedly a good dive spot.  
It has enough depth and because it is essentially a "U" shape, there is 
little to no current in this area.  It is also out of main channel 
traffic and is suppose to have good visibility.

If you locate the blue area marked as "6" feet near the shore (about 10 
o'clock from the RED #2), this is a sandy beach area from which 
observers can watch.  Boat rentals are available from a marina just 
north of here, but off the chart.

Bill has a connection with someone who will be able to provide towing 
from the boat ramps as well.
