Comments The Cap'n would rather dive than drive the boat. His love of the lake and area's history are right out there. His knowledge of diving on the wrecks goes back decades. The boat is a fast, all-aluminum in-board with an all-important head. It is not strickly drysuit diving, but if you wear a wetsuit, you'll be sorry.

Our five days there we covered most of the most interesting wrecks. We were treated as responsible adults in regards to depth and time. This is not to say they didn't care. The captain denied us one distant wreck due to deteriorating conditions. Our safety and enjoyment were paramount. Oxygen was available on board.

Stop at a supermarket and bring a lunch. The drive to the first site is only about 30 minutes.

Kingston is a picturesque college town. The downtown area offers much in the way of food from sidewalk cafes to pubs to ice cream vendors. Strolling to walk off a meal was a distinct pleasure.
