I usually try not to get into these flame wars but you are making it difficult, Dr. Black. I guess I gave you too much credit when I supposed that you had read the archives regarding the flare indident. From this latest comment I see that that is not the case. Instead, you are, obviously, relying on some gossip. There was no involvement by the Coast Guard. Although Jim started to make a call to them, he must have thought better of it because he stopped. As for relinquishing a mooring to another boat, would you do so if you had divers down and another boat was manuvering over their heads? You trully are as much of an idiot as the DIR folks make you out to be.

The Coast Guard got involved and one or both captains received citations. Apparently the dispute was over who had rights to tie up to the mooring(s) on the wreck. And as an aside, if a charter boat pulls up after I have already tied up to the only mooring buoy, I release and let the charter boat tie up, since they are the ones who buoy most of the wrecks and therefore have dibbs IMHO. >> -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
