Which dive boat company are you going with? Are you planning a wreck or reef dive, or both?

**lusenut2** · 03-19-2008, 04:34 PM

Its called Starfish Enterprises. There really cool people. They do both wreck and reef dives. I dont care which 1 we do, or both.

Do they have a problem with collectors and their gear on their boat? Do they have space for a cooler or two?

Im not sure how they would handle the collecting for tanks. Yes they have plenty of room for a cooler. The last time I dove with them, there were about 5 people with big camera's and they all had there own cooler for the camera.

What is thir two dive trip price? We don't need ANYTHING.....

**lusenut2** · 03-20-2008, 11:52 AM

I have a flyer with there 2 dives were $50.00. I dont know the prices for this year but I would imagine $60 or $65.00 with the prices of fuel going up.

We have a friend coming from out of state the very beginning of April and are going for a re-union / dive trip to Lauderdale By The Sea, but this one isn't going to be a big group trip....just oldest friend in te world type visit....I want to get back down around then for a collecting trip....

Is that a BIG boat, or like a 6Pack or 8Pack?

**lusenut2** · 03-20-2008, 02:03 PM

Um no its kinda a small boat I think. They take a max of 14 divers I think.

I had a great collecting trip to Lauderdale By The Sea last weekend. Seas were calm and clear.Filled up my bucket!!!

Starfish Enterprises is a great team to go diving with - very professional. Boats can seat plenty of people - I think the last one we were on had 12-15 divers.

You can get all the info at their website or by calling.

**Cheekymonkey** · 04-02-2008, 12:23 PM

Good luck on the trip guys, I would be up for trips but I am not oging to have a hand in planning it during our meetings... We are on the ORCA forums

**lusenut2** · 04-02-2008, 01:38 PM

Yes I am going to miss the meeting. I dont have a choice on this 1. I have been tring to set a date for a few months with 1 of my other friends and this is the first weekend we can get together. I figured I didnt mind missing this meeting cause its a frag auction meeting and I dont any corals. Sorry I wont be at this meeting either.

**Cheekymonkey** · 04-02-2008, 03:20 PM

Very cool, let me know though how it goes... I would be game for it another time.

**lusenut2** · 04-02-2008, 03:27 PM

I dont know if your interested but im planning a dive trip the end of July in Puerto Rico. Were going there for 6 or 7 days and were looking at 3 or 4 of those days to be diving. Anyone on here is invited on that trip also.
