Hi Dennis,

I know there was a dive operator going into Santa Cruz area for shark 
dives, which brough in Blue sharks and Great Whites, But the E.P.A. the 
fisherman, and the surfers in the area complained until they stopped 
now that dive operator does overnight liveaboard diving in Monterey, 
You go and park you car in Monterey on the wharf where the boat is 
moared then you board the boat that night. When you wake up you are at 
the first dive site with hot breakfast waiting and then you go for your 
first dive then there is a hot lunch and sometimes they have all 
weekend diving.  I'd kind of like to try it one of these days.  
Although I'm sure it would be an adrenalin rush to be in a cage doing a 
shark dive But I had the adrenalin flowing for years as an emergency 
Dispatcher and E.M.T. for an Ambulance company so I don't know if I 
need the adrenalin rush anymore.
 
Talk to you later, dive safe, Marianne
