 Yellowstone sounds great to me, it is only a 10 hr drive for me.  Hawaii would be nice but too far ;-(Maybe one of us should contact someone over there.  Alec???  Hmm there is still time this year.

Hank,                I think my focus will be out here at Catalina island at two harbors, there is a facility out here that has the hyperbaric chamber and is run by USC .  They are a very "needy" facility and are always trying to fund raise for their operating costs so they tend to look for interesting projects.  It might be a good place to start.  I'm going to get my sub squared away using the boatyard, rather than the open ocean, ultimately I will make faster progress even though it will cost me more money.  Also plan to reconfigure my electronics for my motors, presently they all do not have access since I put them under a crawl upon board. I don't like the idea of no access now after looking at gamma again. Also going to put side fixed rudder boards to keep me going straight.  It is so calm over here in Catalina harbor it is just amazing. I'm in a free anchorage  (it's in the Constitution! ) but it's actually better than the mooring Balls!  At this location one would have the choice of either side of the island since only a 1/4 mile separates the island here.  BTW got the ham radio working really good out of here, if anyone wants to rag chew in the evening on 80, 40, or 20 meters in North America or New Zealand .

Hank,The Lake in Yellowstone National Park would be a good one ! It would be fun to see some "black smokers" . ( Hint ! Hint ! , Alec !  ) You would need a temperature probe near your Acrylic Dome so you don't have a "melt down " though .  Have you ever read " Water Baby , The story of Alvin " by Victoria Kaharl " . It gives a full accounting of diving black smokers on the mid ocean ridges . It's a great book I highly recommend it . You should be able to find a used copy on Amazon .Dan Lance
