CCR Trimix Sheboygan
Molly V, Shipwreck Explorers, had a great time diving out of Sheboygan, Wisconsin these past three days, June 12th to June 14th. There was a diverse group of rebreathers on board including Inspiration, Evolution, rEvo, Megalodon, and BMR500. The shipwrecks out of Sheboygan consist of primarly schooners from the 1800's. We dived the Silver Lake, Floretta, Galliniper, Home, Silver Lake (again), and the Walter B. Allen during the three days. These shipwrecks are almost completely intact and some of them have their masts still standing upright with dead-eyes, bowsprits, windlass, anchors, and rudders. Depths ranged from 150 to 210ft.

It was an awesome trip all around from the quality if the shipwrecks, to the skills of captain Jitka to get us on these deep wrecks (many without mooring lines) to flat calm seas , and cheers to this crew of divers as it a pleasure to dive with such talented people! And to Lubo, Michal, and Alex, an instructor can only wish to have such skilled students!!! Phil, I didn't leave you out...you are un-teachable ;-) meaning you are "over qualified" so get that dang test turned in - always a pleasure to dive with you.

Hey, cannot forget the pizza and wine night, Wow! What was the name of that place, it had the best "brick oven" pizza I've had in years!!  Ok, now who do I bribe to get those photos burned???

Thanks Again Shipwreck Explorers (Capt Jitka), the Molly V is the best boat and you spoil us with the best service. Can't wait for the next dive!

Re: CCR Trimix Sheboygan
Hi.
The weather was fantastic. On Saturday the lake was like a glass. I had 2 great dives on Galliniper and Home.

On Sunday we dove the Silver Lake and Walter B. Allen -it was another training dives with Ron Benson. We did SCR around the wreck using off board gas and at the end of the dive we did bailout ascent. It was funny think make bubles again- and noisy.
If anyone is concidering go ccr- Ron Benson is the man for your training.
Best Regards Michal
