    Very well done!! What did you use to reduce the vibration noise in the mounting of the UW housing and scooter?
    Happy diving!!

    We’re using Silent Submersion UV-26 scooters, with their custom made video mount for my Gates housing. It all fits together well, and there is little vibration unless you are at low speed/high torque on the motor.

    Thanks, Brando. And no, that’s not Jay at JB. He was busy man-handling Rodney’s 200W light.

    Awesome work! All you need is a nice light now. I will be on this wreck April 20th, 2008. I hope my dive is as nice as this one.

    Thanks. Tell me, what light would you use when shooting 140 degree wide angle at 100 FSW?

    Two H35/50 HID Video Lights (Dive Rite) would provide up to 11,180 lumens of light with nice color temperatures. Tuning them is another story…when your at 100FSW it would take some time. But, YOU ARE THE MAN! Keep it up!

    I would use an underwater flare. Cheaper and less confusing than what thelexpert said. Haha.

    My father served on that ship in WW2 in the Mediterranean Sea. It’s eerie seeing it at the bottom of the sea. I guess it’s a good place since it would have been scrapped for steel if not used as an artificial reef.

    I love diving on the Duane. Nice clear blue water and out of the green water on Molasses. Sometimes there is a hell of a current out there.
