You must supply or rent the following:

& weights (none of the boats we use supply these)
• Regulator with an octopus or alternate air source
• Pressure
gauge
• BC
providing at least 15 lbs. of lift (snorkeling vests do not
qualify)
• Fins (don't laugh - we've had people tell us they can dive
without them)
DIVE
POLICIES
All diving must be done within recreational sport diving limits:
depths 130' or less, bottom times not to require decompression ,
standard compressed air used as a breathing gas (standard SCUBA w/reg
& tank - no rebreathers).
If you do not have the required equipment as outlined above, you
will not be permitted to dive. You will also not be entitled a
refund.
Limit one scuba tank per diver. (Pony bottles do not count as an
extra tank.)
You must show your certification card at sign-in.
A general briefing will be conducted on each trip
and is mandatory for all divers.
Reef Seekers has a Zero Tolerance policy for poaching and illegal
game-taking. If you take game that is out-of-season, undersized, or
over a bag limit, we will contact DF&G and request that a game
warden rendezvous with the boat to deal with the offender.
We generally try to offer 4 dives on
each single-day trip but sometimes, due to travel time or the speed of the
group, we may only be able to do 3. Farnsworth/Catalina backside
trips are almost always 3-dive days.
ACCOMMODATIONS
All Great Escape trips have staterooms available
at an extra charge. On all the boats with bunks, the boat provides a
pillow and a blanket. Mattresses are frequently naugahyde or other
similar material. It's not a bad idea to bring a sleeping bag
with you to lay out on the bunk and to provide some extra comfort.
Although there are showers on the boats, none of the boats provide
towels.
