Had a great trip on the Blackdog out to Isle Royale. Sat. Aug. 1-Aug 4th. Weather was a problem, but we still got in several great dives. Gale force winds kept us at the dock Sat. made the crossing on Sun. Tried a couple of sites, but current was our undoing.
Monday brought calm conditions, this allowed us to do a double dip on the Congdon stern. Tuesday the winds were back and looking like we might get blown out again, but lucked out. Had a great dive on the Kamloops. Descended with Brandon on the stern line. Made our way to the bow, from there back to the stern to check out the wheel and engine room. Runtime was 25 minutes with around 35 minutes of deco.
Thanks Brian for another great charter. Our group (Brandon, Jim, Tim Vadium and Dave) were great company.

I have to agree with you on the trip report, except you forgot to give credit to  yourself and Jim for all the effort you put in to get this trip together and make this happen!  I for one, am deeply greatful for having the opportunity to be on this trip, and want to offer thanks for job well done.  Now if only you could control the weather next time. 
Oh, btw, thanks for the Inspiration for sale link, your going to make it hard to not go there is see.  But that one is a Classic, not a Vision, lol.
