Very cool. I just heard about it last week. The best part is that they're signed up for a 60'x150' booth area at Our World Underwater. And from what I've heard, our booth (121, bottom right at:  http://www.diyfloorplan.com/OW-U2008/) is right where the car might be situated. We should get a lot of foot traffic from that!

Speaking of OW-U, don't forget to get your tickets before Dec 31st. They have Early Bird pricing right now. OW-U website: http://www.ourworldunderwater.com/

Would enjoy having y'all down, so you've been thinking about St.Thomas? That would explain all the nervous energy amongst our goats here on the island!!

Could somebody please explain what happened with the goat??  I'm very confused about both the goat and the ice!! 

I've never dove in St. Thomas before.  Could you tell me something about the dive sites or attractions in and around St. Thomas, please.

Why don't I really hear very much about the diving in St. Thomas?  Is that because the diving is just pedestrian?

Lots of good diving around st.thomas! Your a stones throw from the island of st.john too! U.S.V.I. is great (you dont need a passport) research it for your self on the net (lot's of info) I'm about a ten or fifteen minute boat ride from some fantastic dive sites depths ranging from 35-85 feet. Dive sites near my shop are: Cow & Calf, ledges of St. James, Buck Island (cool little wreck dive) Andre's Reef, Snapper Valley, a little further out Frenchmans Cap. You can also access the British Virgin Islands (if you have a passport) then you have The Wreck of the Rhone,Norman Island, The Indians etc. I also do private charter's, sailboat charters, spearfishing trips etc. Come on down, I got some sites off the charts! I dont do cattleboats! We handle refferals, good diving and cold beer (after the dive).

Very Cool! Please don't tell me NASCAR does St Thomas, though....

I can vouch for the diving off St Thomas and St John.  My wife and I have spent most of our time there on St John, and found conditions to be first rate -- especially at sites not frequented by the big "cattle boats."

Hammerhead,

I am going on a cruise in January and I beleive a stop is in St. Thomas - Do you deal with cruise ships? Personally I prefer booking through the ship - They can not leave witrhout me, but you sound OK and I would be willing to give you a shot. I will check out your website
