Someone in my dive club in Seattle is running a charter on the Iron Eagle in Sept. I've read through some othe many controversal posts here. Obviously mixed reactions. But mostly from a year or so ago.
But I understand the boat was extensively refited and improved in Nov 2003. Sounds like quite a bit of improvement in the dive deck, which was the cause of a lot of problems.
I am from the LA area, first dove there in 1969 and went on the Peace a year or so ago, so I have a pretty good idea of the conditions for an out-of-towner. We are all experienced cold water divers.
Anyway, I'd like to hear recent reports, since the refit, what people think now. First hand and without a bunch of BS, if you haven't been on the boat, please.
Copy to my email would be nice.
