I think to make a hole they'd charge at least half the cost of a complete mech. Try a masonry bit, they're carbide tipped and cheap.

I don't know my way around boats very well, although I've been on a number of different ones including some expensive boats. What impressed me about Mike's boat is how roomy it is, space wise it's easily the most comfortable boat for diving I've been on. I don't understand why you'd sell it Mike, I'd just fix it and make it perfect.

The lobster pic is awesome.

Nice pics. Look at everyone decked out with gopros.

Which one did you get? How was it to clean after?

Very nice.

Don is right.

Looks great, room for many divers.
Any disadvantages to this long shape?

I have to disagree. We have times in the year where the water is very cold (or at least feels that way, it's a matter of acclimation) and no water comes into my suits. Maybe you're having a hard time finding a suit that fits you properly, and some areas are loose and don't seal. I see in your avatar pic you're using a JBL suit? Not sure how much experience JBL has making open cell suits, seems to me like they started in the last couple of years. If going by the guns it's going to take them a while to get it right, if ever.

Friday night used to be so hectic, a long time ago. Good night boys.

Phil, now that you say that I'm not sure if you've used an open cell suit. There's no water circulation in the suit at all.

When more warmth is needed, it's time to go to a thicker suit all around, not double up on material in a small area of the torso, just where it restricts breathing. What sense does it make to have 7mm around the arms, arm pits, legs and head, and 14mm between your hips and chest. Maybe this worked with double lined scuba suits, but with open cell it doesn't make sense to me.

Literally huh
It's great to be able to do it in the water. Having to take off the jacket and hold it, while holding the gun in the other hand and trying to take a dump is next to impossible. Without suspenders you just unbuckle the beaver tail, roll up the jacket, roll down the pants to about your knees, and assume a fetal position, at the same time making short rapid finning movements with your hands, to stay afloat and get away from your own refuse.
Here is a series of photos with Rolo demonstrating the technique. On the boat Sergio and I were alerted to the presence of the flotsam by Rolo and were anxiously watching it and Davie's (who was swimming behind Rolo) trajectory. Here you see Davie swimming into the turdfish and taking evasive action.
Rolo proud of his accomplishment.
Davie reaching the boat relieved to have escaped certain doom.
