I just bought my ticket and I am ready for the "dive". I was happy that this method of participation exists. I cannot get off work on the day of the dive, and I still wanted to participate. The Flying Dutchman is not a real boat, and as in the other boats, all the proceeds go to the Hyperbaric Chamber. I still get to attend the evening and can participate in the raffles, just like everyone else. But I will not take up space on the real boats and I will not miss work. It is a clever way to allow folks like me who cannot make the day's event provide support the local chamber.
I hope to see many more of you on the Dutchman with me. I expect it will some of the best diving I can imagine! And besides, the boat on my t-shirt is the Flying Dutchman! That alone is worth the price of admission!
