Subject: Firm DATE California-George Irvine Lecture & scooter demo update>
Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2002 15:26:10 -0800


We have a firm date for the Gavin scooter demo and lecture by George Irvine
~

5/18  Monterey Coastguard Breakwater.... I will update everyone as to the
times as we get a closer...

Please reconfirm if you plan on attending.. Everything is free!!! See
below....


I know that many of you have wanted to dive in the kelp forests of Northern
California, and now you have a good excuse! :-)

George Irvine is scheduled to come to Monterey Bay (Northern California) in
the first part of May. For more information on the kelp forests and dive
sites in the Monterey Bay Area, try the following link:
http://www.montereybaycalifornia.com/diving/home.php3 Scowl down the page to
see 360 degree views of some of the dive sites > The water temperature is
expected to be about 52F, but we told George 82F! ;-)


Here is a very brief description of the days planned activities. Please
confirm with me ASAP if you are interested in attending so we can judge how
much space is required. I will try to firm up the date in the next day or
two.


At present the cost is:  Zero, nada, free. (Limited to Space availability)

1. In the morning there will be Gavin demos/rides at the breakwater. Here is
the problem...we only have two scooters to lend and two extra battery packs.
Not exactly sure who many people we can rotate in. I am guessing maybe 20 or
so.. (aprox. 15-20 min each w/10 min each on the trigger) We will have a
couple of other Gavins scooters in the water to help escort those people
trying the Gavins, but I have to finalize the list soon to ensure that those
interested get the first spots.

2. If you or your friends want to try backplates or a long hose regulator
set-up, these will also be available. (Great opportunity to share this
set-up with your friends)

3. In the late afternoon George Irvine will give a lecture. I need to know
how many people might attend to see how big of a place I need.

REVISED SATURDAY 5/18 >>>>>The first Saturday in May, May 4th, is a
tentative date and is subject to
change.

Please indicate which of the events you might be interested in, if you plan
on bringing others, etc...

Thanks,

Jt
