    I am planning on doing the ebber ward which I have been on 3 times. =
The max depth I reached on the ward was 128'. I have been over 100' =
probably 8 times wothout getting out my log. I have dove several wrecks =
in the 40 to 100' foot range. I dive a lot in the st. Clair river which =
has low vis and current. I do most of my practice dives there. I am =
currently signed up for Nitrox. I also do not have 100 dives in yet =
which seems to be the basic first step for Trimix. I will have those in =
by the end of this year. All of my expierence is in cold greatlakes =
water. I do not plan any wreck penetration for this dive except for a =
verticle decent and ascent into the wide open cargo hole which I have =
done on a previous dive. The max depth for the ward unless you start to =
dig a hole underneath the wreck is just dhy of 140' so I am planning my =
dive for 140 but I donot plan on spending much time at that depth.=20
    I am interested in trimix and I do believe it to be safer than air =
or nitrox at this depth but I have not found a store in my area who =
teaches it. Also it appears online that the training runs about $800 =
which to me as a college student is a bit high. However I know the =
response of what price can you put on a life will come up. I guess the =
risks of narcosis which at the depths and times I have done I didn't =
expierence any is not that great at the dive I am planning. I have heard =
it is a fairly safe plan to that it is not a safe plan. Well thats a =
little of my background and thankyou for your reply's
