Mag needed ASAP Helo crash Tampa Bay

[G.I.B.]

G.I.B. I see you found my dive mask.

No, this one belongs to some Greek fellow. His name is on the mask, Quadra Genesis, probably a diver out of Tarpon Springs.

Lots of Greek divers up that way.


Did you find your boat?

Larry, Quadra Genesis is the brand name. Its a 4-window Genesis mask. As far as I know you and I are the only ones that have dived that area.

C'mon GIB - give the man his mask back. Perhaps you'll get a finders fee of a beer!

Darren, Nice post. At the very least, after splitting expenses for the dive. I think Larry should at least give half the mask back to salvor6 . ( only kidding about the half part. )

Larry, often times it's better to be the bigger man in a situation. After all it's only a dive mask. Its not like you have to split the reward with him. And Pete, only my opinion, but next time communicate timely with the guy that turned you on to a project. Then you wouldn't have these problems.

The above is something called 'Humor' It's a phunny thing. It's a play on words and a situation. Who could mistake a manufacturers label for some Greek dude's name embossed on the glass.... I mean really...

He can have his mask anytime he comes to pick it up. I don't want it, don't need it, have a bunch of my own. If I had intended to keep it, I would have NEVER posted a picture of it....

Come on guys, check your NITROX mix~

And yes Pete, there were lots of people out there diving the site. Even a sailboat out of Miami, two fishing boats and the kayak. Once the coords of the blade pieces were publicly posted---

and again, did you find your boat and what happened to the boat yard?

 

[Salvor6]

Larry, the boatyard lost their lease. The owner moved all the boats two blocks down in a storage yard. I picked up my boat and took it home. The battery was dead. I tried to charge it but it wouldn't take a charge. I got a new battery and hooked it up but the engine would not turn over. Another project to work on.
My wife gave me that mask as a Christmas present. I'll call you later this week.

 

[ScubaFinder]

Glad to hear you got your boat back Pete.

G.I.B. - I got it...and it was funny.

Lovephillis,CNN wont want to do a story like this unless a gun was involved in shooting down the chopper.

 

[bronzecannons]

My dive buddy called me this morning and said "you want to make a dive today?" To make a long story short, we already recovered the chopper blades. Sorry G.I.B.View attachment 717811

I'm really curious to know.. HOW DID HE LOCATE THOSE?
