Since I was unable to attend the March 11th meeting in San Diego, I have very little information about what is happening. I heard that Catalina had a proposed site or that they wanted to find a spot out there. Why that is proposed I don't know, but I recently dove on the Yukon and the vis sucked. I've heard it almost always sucks.
Do you think the Santa Monica Bay would provide better vis than what you get on the Yukon? Is Catalina a better bet for more days of better conditions? How much of a fight would you get from the communists in Santa Monica? What would the Heal the Bay reaction be?
I have a lot of questions but haven't talked to anyone with answers...yet, but I know there is an effort underfoot to do something.
