Hi Kent,

Sounds about right for the stupid PADI stuff.  We have a NAUI shop, locally, 
whose owner who told me 5 years ago that "nobody needs to go deeper than 
60fsw ."  The irony is that since he expanded his shop, and is looking for 
other revenue, he is now mysteriously offering Trimix courses.  This from a 
guy that, as far as I can tell, never does a deep dive outside of a class.  I 
have also heard that he does "simulated" "deep dives" for his advanced open 
water students, because there is "to much liability" going to 100fsw.  

That's not really why I responded though.  I am interested in the wrecks that 
you described.  I am interested in planning a trip to your area.  I dive with 
a small group of divers that like going deep in Carmel, CA.  So far my focus 
has been diving with a digital video to capture images of the marine life at 
175-200fsw.  All of my regular buddies are now Trimix divers.  Most of us 
have the Halcyon rigs.  Any information would be appreciated.

Regards,

Dave
