Marathon Key, FL 18-20 August 2000
Pictures were few, and the camera was acting up. We dived 5 times. The highlight of the dives was to the Thunderbolt wreck with a maximum depth of 120 feet.
We dived with Captain Ozzie Wilson on board his boat the Open Water. Ozzie rents the 2nd floor of his house out to divers and docks his boat right there alongside the very nice house. We Highly recommend him if you want a comfortable place to stay and dive. A Keys style Bed & Breakfast type of place... Great.... You certainly don't have far to walk to get on board! Ozzie is very friendly, and diver supportive... He has been a PADI scuba instructor for 10+ years.
To contact him: 305-743-0038, 111 Mockingbird Lane, Marathon, Florida, 33050.
Henry besides our dive boat. Big and VERY spacious.
No way to crowd this boat. Maximum 6 divers (not counting the crew).
Ozzie behind the palm... He isn't being shy.
The camera man is just nuts...
