[PSUBS-MAILIST] Keith Gordon, diving Niagra

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Keith,
thanks for the info & congratulations on the wreck discovery. An unusual cargo, 
500 dead Chinese being returned to China. The cargo of gold on the Niagra is a bit more appealing.
I had a look for the Dapple & got told off for going on the pier :(, I held the security 
gate open for someone & thought this was a good opportunity to get through.
When Triton was here on the Alucia I just rocked up & they showed me around.
Apparently they don't have sub pilots on board & are sub contracting the piloting
of the sub. I do now have an email contact.
Cheers Alan

The vessel the Dapple was still here when I last checked - google Dapple for vessel info there. Not sure if the projects are to be resurrected at present.
