Before you arrive
Access notes
The profile coordinate is an area or structure reference, not a navigation waypoint. Download current Georgia DNR GPX data, verify the intended material drop, file a float plan, display required dive flags, and do not begin a dive where others are fishing.
Plan within your training
Conditions and hazards
Strong current, changing visibility, waves, boat traffic, long offshore evacuation, entanglement, sharp metal, fishing gear, unstable or collapsing reef material, and entrapment. Penetration requires specific wreck/overhead training, equipment and a conservative gas plan.
