Love the tan too ((((!

Magic, there is a baby tank as well….

Yes that’s “Sherman”

nuno32181: ((((((((; That was an awesome dive, you would love it!!!

I am sure that I would love to dive this wreck ))

One of my most memorable dives ever…….great video…Thanks for posting.

Dec0dog: Thanks a lot for your comment!

that’ll be me in 3weeks time

yep. unlike the crazy fools going there on a single tank

infernalzen: Did you see divers diving San Francisco maru on single tank?!

ive not been to truk yet (going in 3weeks)
but had seen plenty of vids on youtube with people next to one of those light japanese tanks @50mr? with a single 12ltr tank

isnt san francisco maru the only wreck with the light japanese tanks?

infernalzen: I think Nippo Maru has got Japanese tanks too, check it out! San Francisco is a stunning wreck!

i hope to be able to check loads of them out
i have two weeks at the lagoon hotel.

glad theres tanks elsewhere +not people risking it, just for the sake of it…

infernalzen (: Sorry just overlooked your comment about single tank divers… Yes there were a lot of single tank Japanese divers in Chuuk I saw a couple diving San Francisco Maru that is 57 -60 m to the bottom. They do “a touch dives” and don’t see a lot.

infernalzen:#2 We were diving from the boat (well a yacht to be honest) and we had all the manifolds, double tanks, deco stages, etc on board. But I heard the dive shop on the island is good. They have got everything you need.

thanks
with the “touch divers”
diving outside their certification, into the “hope it goes well”.
i wouldve thought the operator, had the responsibility to instill upon its clients,
the danger of exceeding their certification +plan.
+told them theyd check their depths post dive +anyone exceeding their cert would not dive again that day
+not dive again without a guide.

I was involved in lifting the Zero fighters to use as templates for flight replicas.

History flew with effort.

TheUSCam: That’s very interesting! Would you like to consider making a short documentary about it with us?

infernalzen: I think the local dive shop is still ok with deep touch dives. These divers are diving with their guides only.

That would be very a very good idea, TheUSCam.

personal choice i guess.
if someones open water +does it…
they must hope someone dumps their dive computer memory if theyre taken to hospital?
or the insurer wont cover a cent of the bill.

@overseasmedia

I acknowledge the suggestion. I will discuss it with others to see if there is a general interest. As we have worked with the film industry before any commercial maritime contract would have to be via the Baltic Exchange.

@scubazmei

We may yet take you up on the offer of charter. A short, or long, documentary has a financial interest to us. As has any commercial enquiry of our services.

TheUSCam: That would be an option…Can we talk via email?

@overseasmedia

By email can easily be done. However, as what we have here at the moment is possibly just a tonge-in-cheek response to a youtube comment and not a genuine offer please put some ideas together, including your available funding figures for the project and PM me. If we beleive you are sincere then we could certainly do business.

A contract via the Baltic is not an option, it is an effective way of ensuring contracts are not renaiged on, by either party.
