Well here is the logo and name on her. Dive ladder is next then diving galore! The preview shows the pictures rotated but clicking on them they come up correctly. Interesting

Deco gas and doubles? Sweet! Anytime you are out here in California!

Thanks. I guess you'll be taking out students? Did you install roll-control? I never found the need, she is so steady on the water, but it was never more than me and a buddy or two. BTW, the slots in the transom were perfect for deploying gear leashes!

Thanks Rob.. Probably just me and friends. The commodore is a little leery of me doing 6-pack charters. So I'm getting her set up for day trips to the islands and personal diving. I haven't dove off her yet I'm waiting for the dive ladder being made to install it. How did you stage your tanks on deck? I added a stainless anchor and am working on the windlass remote then she will be ready for anchoring and diving. Lots of spots around here to dive so I'm ready..

Sounds good. Charters would beat up the boat anyway as I witnessed when I mated on a 6 pack dive boat for several years. Plus it's a lot of load on her with all that weight.. My boat was used for friends only. We stood the single tanks in the corners and tied off to the stern cleats, like in the above on-the-run photo. For doubles we laid them on their backs on rubber mats.
