on the Truth(hunting Trip)
Twenty or so years ago Truth Aquatics started building their
dive boats from the waterline up. These boats were designed
and built for California divers. Unlike many boats that have
been built for other industries or for other diving markets
these boats were made for diving the Channel Islands. With
comforts such as roomy decks, bunks, hot showers, incredible
food, and a great crew, this is sure to be a wonderful trip
for all divers and non-divers alike.
Over the trip the schedule is loose and convenient affording
as much or as little bottom time as you would like. Gates
typically open at seven in the morning and the boat will make
many moves throughout the day. There are three meals scheduled
daily with snacks and beverages available all day long. All
the food is included in the price of the trip and eating this
well prepared menu is worth the price of admission alone.
If you did not get enough diving in during the day, there
will also be a night dive. For those who prefer stargazing
and sharing a story or two over desert, there is not a better
beachfront table to sit at on the West coast. One of the many
advantages of diving in this live-a-board fashion is that
you get to pick and choose your dives, gain experience due
to repetition, and experience proper dive planning. Not only
will the diving be great, the time shared with diving companions
will be sure to make some new dive buddies for future trips.
If diving is not your main enthusiasm try bringing along a
kayak, book or fishing pole and enjoy the other wonders that
the Channel Islands has to offer.
August 10 - 11,
2007, aboard the Dive Boat Peace
This trip is scheduled for a venture to Catalina and Santa
Barbara Island. The first day is scheduled to dive the frontside
of Catalina where we will anchor up for the night in Avalon
harbor. If you choose you may take a shore boat to Avalon
and have dinner in down or just go out and explore Avalon
at night. Day two takes you to Santa Barbara Island where
you will have the chance to dive the famous Sealion rookery.
Always a great time diving with these incredible pinnepeds,
you will sure to get a up close encounter with these puppy's
of the sea.

Lobster 3-Day (Conception)
This is your chance at early season lobster grabbing. SLO
Ocean Currents has acquired this early season trip that has
produced bugs of up to 365 total for a 3-day trip. Not every
year is 365 but on the average over 8 years, SLO Ocean Currents
has caught 200+ lobster per trip. Lobster grabbing isn't the
only reason to participate in this trip, as October is without
a doubt the best time of year to be diving. Just let all the
crazed lobster divers jump in the water first and it's like
having your own private vessel. Early sign-ups are a must
as this trip fills very early.

December 3 - 5, 2004,
Catalina Island Weekend
We're returning to Avalon once again this December! With
just about the easiest (if not also the best) shore diving
in California, Catalina just beckons you back again and again.
Unlimited shore diving is up to you in and around the Avalon
dive park. For those of you who aren't familiar with shore
diving at Catalina, not only is there a compressor at the
park, there are steps that literally lead into the water.
Could it get any easier? Of course, this is if you're still
itching to get in the water after the three boat dives we'll
do Saturday aboard the King Neptune. Either way,
visibility late in the year can be more than 80 feet out at
Catalina, so we're sure to have some nice dives. The trip
includes the ferry Friday night and Sunday afternoon from
San Pedro, two nights at the Hermosa Hotel, and a three tank
dive on the King Nepture, all for $249 (p.p.d.o.),
a great deal! If you're ready to take the next step after
Open Water, we're planning on offering a full Advanced Open
Water course over the weekend as well. Give us a call today
to sign up!
Valentine's Day Weekend, February 13 - 15, 2004, Avalon,
Catalina
We're headed back to Avalon to enjoy the island for another
weekend! The basic trip includes rooms at the Hotel Atwater
and a three tank boat dive on Saturday the 14th. Unlimited
shore diving is also available in the Catalina Underwater
Dive Park for a small fee. If you haven't been, ask somebody
who has. They'll agree it's the nicest shore diving in California,
with steps and railing leading into the water and air fills
just steps away from the dive site!
