There is an old saying in diving — “plan your dive and dive your plan.”
We will only have four days of diving (conditions permitting), but I’ve got quite the “hit list” of locations to go see inside the wreck below the flight deck:
- Command Information Center
- Engine Room #2 (and possibly #1?)
- Brig (aka the Jail)
- Dentist Office
- Barbershop
- Laundry Room
- Emergency Power Diesel Generators
- Arresting System
- The list continues…
And that doesn’t even include the outside sights or the island. Something tells me that even with 3 hour run times we aren’t going to see anywhere near what we want. 🙂
Hi, which Dive Center allows 3h Dives and support rebreather divers with O2, Sofnoline and Tanks?
We are from germany and want to dive the USS Oriskany with our Rebreather next time.
We had booked a private charter with Nihue (https://niuhidivecharters.com/uss-oriskany-dive). I had two friends meeting me there and they were driving with tanks & supplies from Cave Country so we didn’t need to worry about fills, sofnolime, etc.
I did find a shop that could do Trimix fills called MBT Divers (https://mbtdivers.com/services/gas-fills) in case we needed them.
I hope that helps.
