Greetings!
Manta with diver and twin remoras going for a ride. | Your summer is already filling up with travel plans and special events. At HydroSports we're hoping you'll choose to reserve time to explore the best of local and regional diving, invest in becoming a better diver and share your excitement with your family, friends and co-workers.
Here's some really good news; we're pulling out all the stops to make learning to dive or continuing your dive education as easy as possible.
Our Two-Fer-One Summer Sale will save you money, make it easy for you to discover new skills and improve your "mental health" (remember, breathing compressed air underwater is guaranteed to give you a positive outlook). Learn about the Summer Two-Fer-One Sale by clicking HERE.
But wait, there's more (just like the Ginsu knife commercial); look for events, product news, equipment specials and more throughout this email.
Are you ready? If so, read on my friends!
Sincerely,
Mark Fischer

Low Oxygen Levels In The Hood Canal |
 It may be time to remind divers that the environment in Hood Canal is currently a bit stressful to some of the deeper water critters.
This seems especially apparent in lower Hood Canal based on the regular information from the ORCA mooring located near Hoodsport.
During times of low oxygen conditions, such as are occurring now, there have also been observations of stress in fish all the way into Dabob Bay.
I would appreciate if you would ask divers to keep an eye on the critters and report what they are seeing.
If you have any questions about what information the ORCA mooring is providing, please contact me.
Please pass the word.
Thanks,
Dan
