St Clair River Trip August 7/8, 2010

Lake Huron empties into the St Clair River about 5 hours north of Columbus. The Underwater Connection has taken divers to see the incredible wrecks located in the river off of Pt Huron, Mi and Sarnia, Ontario for over twenty years! On the Canadian side in 55 feet of water lies the wreck of the Monarch, a tugboat which sank in 1934 about 200 feet from the riverbank.  On the American side is a wonderful drift dive with schools of freshwater fish and the wreck of a crane which fell off a barge. Water temperature in August is in the upper 60's with no thermocline at depth (river flow is surface water blown in from Lake Huron) and visibility can range from 15 to 40 feet.

Schedule: Sat August 7, 3:00pm dive on the Monarch.  5:00pm drift dive off Sarnia, Ontario side.

Sunday August 8, 10:00am and noon drift dives on American side.

Cost:  $55.00 per dive includes PADI Drift Diver certification.

$25 deposit due by July 23.
