New York Diving

So it's time to look for a new job, and I've been offered a few good
ones in the US. One of the better ones is in NYC. What's the diving
like around there? Obviously, diving can't be the only criteria, but
I'll be damned if I'm moving to yet another place smack-dab in the
middle of the great planes...

Thanx

Bryan

One thing about New York, it is smack dab in the middle of the great planes.
Great planes to diving destinations. ;^)

Diving wise NYC has a lot to offer. The NY and NJ wreck diving,
spearfishing, fresh water lakes and the proximity to many other areas in a
short drive. If you are in for a cold adventure, spend a weekend at Lake
George and dive the Radeau. It is the oldest intact warship, (from the
French and Indian War) in the western hemisphere. One hundred seven feet
down and about 37-41 degrees F year-round.

Expense wise OUCH!!!! Costs big bucks to live in the NYC metro area.

Good luck,

Fleas

There are hundreds of wrecks in the NY/NJ area. Many of them absolutely
fantastic. In the up to 130 fsw range the most famous ones are The San
Diego, The Stolt, The Tolten, The Algol, The Arundo, The Oregon. In most of
them there are lobster, flounder, bass, and black fish. Occasionally we see
sharks, tuna, and dolphins. Then you have the wrecks where the main
attraction are artifacts that could be found from ships anywhere from the
1800s to WW II ships sunk by german U-boats.
Visibility ranges from 1 to 60 feet. 20 to 30 on most days. Water temp below
100 ft ranges between 38 in April to upper 50s in October.
There many dive boats that take you out. The usual routines are a dive, two
hour surface interval and another dive, or one long dive.
If you need any more details, email me.

How many New Yorkers does it take to change a light bulb?
