Wooden deadeyes recovered from a wreck far off the coast of Nantucket. A deadeye is a wooden block used in a ship’s rigging to tighten the lines that support the masts. Items like these are frequently lost to fishermen’s nets, draggers, and the North Atlantic’s shifting sands. #deadeye #techdive #techdiver #techdiving #techdivers #wreckdiving #wreckdive #rebreatherdiving #rebreatherdiver #rebreatherdivers #northatlanticocean #atlanticocean #nantucket #wreck #shipwrecks #ccrexplorers #underwaterexploration #underwaterexplorer #oceanexploration #oceanexplorer
One thing that always makes Captain Maz happy is Simple Green. He uses it to keep D/V Tenacious so clean you can eat off the floor. Just the smell of it makes him smile. He was like a child when he discovered this half frozen ball of the green stuff aboard. Ahhh, the Simple things indeed. #simplegreen #diveboat #diveboats #captaincleanfreak #simplegreencleaner #simplegreenclean #simplegreencleaning #cleanfreak @simplegreen
Kurt shares his #spyderco set up with our totally non-critical fans. Thoughts? He asked for it! #diveknife #techdive #techdiver #techdiving #scuba #scubadiving #scubadive #scubadiver #nowthatsaknife🔪🔪
Our quest for decent visibility on the Choapa continues. At least this time we managed to get two sets of dives on her. As Tom said, “I think I knew where we were at. I just didn’t know how to get to where I wanted to be.” Good times. #techdiving #techdiver #techdive #rebreatherdiving #rebreatherdiver #rebreatherdivers #otterdrysuits #drysuitdiving #drysuitdiver #ccrexplorers #iqsubccr #wreckdiving #atlanticocean #atlanticocean🌊 #wreckdive #wreckdiver
SS Choapa is known for some pretty bad visibility, but zero feet takes the cake. Time to turn it around and grab some lunch ashore. Hey, you don’t know if you don’t try. #techdiving #techdiver #techdive #rebreatherdiving #rebreatherdiver #badvisibility #ccrexplorers #wreckdiving #scuba #scubadiving #scubadive #scubadiver #scubalife #atlanticocean
Some of the fun we have aboard D/V Tenacious is taking a look inside goodie bags when divers surface. Here’s a few highlights from this summer. What’s in your bag? #artifacts #wreckdiving #wreckdive #wreckdiver #wreckdivers #underwaterexploration #underwaterexplorer #scuba #scubadiving #scubadive #scubadiver #scubadivers
Double boat operations offshore this weekend. It was great fun meeting up with our friends from R/V Integrity for a little diving. The dredge set up always creates a bit of an obstacle course, but a little cautions goes a long way. Here’s to good times with good friends!
Ever wonder how we raise artifacts from the ocean floor? Here’s a high-speed video of the team recovering the gyro compass repeater, phone booth, and a porthole from M/V Oregon. #rebreather #rebreatherdiving #rebreathers #rebreatherdiver #artifact #travelinman #thedeadsouth #ccrexplorers #scuba #scubadive #scubadiving #wreckdiving #wreckdive #wreckdiver #wreckdivingphotography #oceanexploration #atlanticocean #techdive #techdiver #techdiving #techdivers
Got sun? No problem. Thanks to Mark Nix for this awesome canopy. Suiting up in the summer sun has never been so cool.
Captain Maz is the grouch we all love to love. Here is rejecting all assistance as he grumpily moves to the platform to splash. #scuba #scubadiving #scubadive #scubadiver #divegear #techdive #techdiver #oscarthegrouch #grouchy #dvtenacious #rebreatherdiving #rebreatherdiver #rebreatherdivers #otterwatersports #otterdrysuits #grumpy #ccrdiving #wreckdiving #wreckdiver
