It’s that time of year again. Lots of training dives.
I got together with Chris Farrell for a little dive and to video eachother’s trim.
Video turned out good and showed us what we needed to see. Great analysis tool.

A wreck and drift dive on the Wee Hawk and Lock 28. St. Lawrence River.

Dive on the shipwreck Rothesay in the St. Lawrence River.

I’d never heard of one either….

On a recent camping trip to Algonquin Park , one rainy afternoon we boarded the van and drove to the Algonquin Logging museum. Walking the trail, admiring an old tree farmer much like the one I had hot wired in my youth, all manners of axs and chainsaw and after seeing the bunkhouse quite thankful  I wasnt a 19th century logger, we rounded a corner by the log dam and perched on the embankment was a paddlewheeler like no other I’d ever seen.

 A group from Liquid Archaeology was invited by SOS Toronto to visit the schooner  barge Sligo. The goal for the night? To complete a set of measurements for SOS Toronto’s wreck monitoring program. The winds were out of the south west which is not good for this site. With over 50 km of open lake for the wind to blow across there is a lot of wave potential.

 Thursday May 8th the Liquid crew were in attendance at the premiere of the new IMAX film Mysteries of the Great Lakes at the Ontario Science Center along with many members of the Ontario dive community. Our own John Millar worked on this film as a member of the underwater unit. It was his chance and ours to see how the shots would be featured.
