I'm in Columbia and would like to dive the Cooper when the weather gets warmer.  I'm an experienced diver with an advanced open water cert, nitrox cert, and plenty of experience with zero viz solo diving thanks to being on a search and recovery dive team.  I've been diving in the Cooper in the past on a guided tour.  I've got all of the necessary equipment except a drysuit (hence the warmer weather remark) and tanks.  I'll be glad to help with the expenses for airfills, gas, etc.  I'm addicted to fossil hunting like everyone else and would go every day if my job and wife would allow it.  I've got a newborn and a two year old that make it hard for me to drop everything without enough notice but I'd like to dive the cooper with you if our schedules work out.  Drop me an email at bcjones4@sc.rr.com to discuss further.  Same goes for other like minded people needing a dive buddy in SC or anywhere else.
