several attempts, the club finally took off a few years ago. The Club consists of women of a variety of
ages (early 20's to don't you even dare to ask!),
training (Open Water to Master Instructor),
experience (collectively we would circle the globe from Truk Lagoon to
the Red Sea, many Caribbean destinations as well as several fresh
water sites state-side)
and occupations (married, single, career women, domestic goddesses)
But they come together at least once a year for their own
responsibility-free dive trip. Most members are from Wichita, Kansas
but hail from as far west currently as Arizona and Utah and from as far
east as Massachusetts. We're still working on North and South
expansions! Previous trips have taken the group to the Bay Islands of Roatan; Kona, Hawaii;
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico; and now...
TURKS AND CAICOS
Our week aboard the Turks and Caicos Aggressor was nothing short of
memorable!! Of course, that was to be expected aboard an Aggressor vessel
and the crew did NOT disappoint!
The food was delicious, the diving beautiful, the sun deck well visited. The Fleet's motto is
EAT, SLEEP, AND DIVE!
The Diving in Turks and Caicos was absolutely incredible and outside of another live-aboard vessel,
we did not see another dive operation so the sites were ours to ourselves without the hindrance of
other groups. The marine life was diverse in both size and variety. We saw the elusive fingerprint
cyphomas and hard to spot wire shrimp, played with a pod of dolphins, swam with (or ducked) reef
sharks and there were more lobster and big crab than I remember seeing ANYWHERE!
T-shirts, bandanas, treats and toys, sea-water dunkings, and synchronized hot tub performances
rounded out the week. And I lost count of how many books the group finished during surface
intervals. Naomi and Mandy got some wonderful photos to share and the crew sent us home with
more stills and a video record of our trip. What more could a girl ask for?
Ladies, wouldn't you like to join us on our next dive adventure!! And you DON'T HAVE to be a diver
to come along. Some just enjoy the surface time away from the hustle of home!
