    Post COMPLAINT to DeWayne and FW

    man.......

    that reel is too small!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    well... I have to thank you very much Dewayne and Forrest for their big help, now I have regs and a reel, I had the possibility of doing an stage dive, even when reel was too smal I have to say thanks

    today we emptied 2 of those reels in phillipe's cave, sorry phil for that one was the reel he left near full of line and the other was dewayne present for the exploration.

    so that added about 1200' of line to his maybe 3000' ?? phil??

    and thank you philipe and tomas for taking us there and allowing us to lay some line (I know you hate that part..LOL), that appears to be the longest cave here in DR

    We also added about 185' of line using nomount at our cave with dave, plus I think almost finished the survey, so the map is coming soon after a scare because they are not allowing anybody in the park now, we lost a day of diving but got permission for doing the surveys thanks to a nice girl called Kelly that is working in the hotels management.

    Beside that...

    we had no way to find hose clamps for rigging stages, so we invented de tirap stage


    wich worked very well, thanks again to Dewayne and Forrest because we used the rigs they sent!!

    well, no more news for that... just trying to keep up with the promess I made to keep you guys posted about the exploration here.

    hopefully more to come

    Talk to some of the scooter manufactures, you never know, they might actually donate a couple.

    COOL!!! so we got a bigger reel now.. hehe, yeah I think we should start talking about scooters... that philip cave is already too long

    dave, we need more caves now to put all that line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    hopefully that reel is going to be small as well

    and bob, hope you can make it down, but bring that little electronic thingy you want to make with you

    darn, wish I could go to the social, did dave made it?
