We filled up the conference room and had 4 very good dive trip reports. The first report came from Earl and Mimi Eblen who went to Fiji. I can not spell the city they stayed in but they saw lots of sharks and the high lite of the trip was seeing Manta’s. They had lots of cool pictures. After the meeting Earl met with a dive instructor to review recreational diving limits…

Second came from Claudia and Wade Pfennig who went to Galapagos to dive. They had cool pictures of places to see when you can’t be in the water. They also had picture of Manta’s, sharks and of the largest known fish. Maybe the name of this fish should be a trivia question.

Third Jim Hull gave a report of diving off the coast of North Carolina to some ship wrecks. He chose to dive the Dixie Arrow, F.W. Abrams and the Proteus. He said there was some current but the dives were fun.

Claudia and Wade gave the final report on diving in Bali. All gave excellent reports and had a good time. They all highly recommend using a dive master or guide when going on dive trips.
