To: techdiver@terra.net
My company is tentatively going to do a field production and live
broadcast from Truk Lagoon In late February for one of my Asian
clients.  Our crew of 5 will be providing all uw videography and the
live transmission back to Asia from the boat. While I have most of the
technical collecting and broadcast elements locked in, I need to verify
the worth of a the provisioner that my client has contracted to provide
the 65' boat, tanks and logistics support coordination.  My guys will
bring their own gear with the exception of the tanks.  We are planning
on diving EANx via twin steel 80's, which is no problem for us.  Our
concern is that the client has provided us with a quality provisioner
and not some fly by night operator who's borrowing his Uncle Chewie's
boat and hard gear to make a fast yen.

I prefer not to divulge the provisioner's name my client has
contracted.  I would like for anyone who has hired such facilities in
the past out of Truk to advise the names of outfits that are qualified,
advanced, and equiped in their work to provide services for such a
production.  we are not talking vacationing livaboards (at least not
this time), we are talking about technical dive support as it relates
to underwater videography production and the broadcast of such
production live via Intelsat or Inmarsat back to the mainland.  Again,
I have the technical support ironed out (cameras, lights, sub-post
editing, switching and transmission), I just need to know who is the
class act in Truk that can support such an event.
