Dear Dirty Dozen Team Member,

We hope this email as always finds you well.

It’s that time of the year - Trade Show Season - and we are in full force getting ready for our big show at DEMA in New Orleans in November.

We have several big announcements during the show which we cannot wait to share with you!

DEMA SHOW 2023 NEW ORLEANS

DEMA Show is known as the biggest trade show in the diving industry and is happening this year in New Orleans from November 14-17.

We will have a booth in the Technical Diving Resource Center located at Booth #1553 next to SubGravity, Divesoft and JJ CCR to chat about exploration diving in Truk Lagoon, Bikini Atoll, Solomons, Galapagos & Palau.

Right next to our booth is the TDRC DEMA Stage where the presentations of the show will be held.

We will once again have 2 presentations lined up:

The first presentation is called “The Darkest Hours - A six-hour struggle to escape from an upside down wreck”

In August 2022, four rebreather divers inside the tanker Sata realized they had no way to get out of the wreck. Eventually, the divers outside the wreck noticed their friends were overdue. That's when they heard someone banging the hull with a stage cylinder - from the inside.

Aron Arngrimsson, Geoff Creighton, Brett Eldridge and Antti Apunen tell how a regular wreck dive turned into a time-critical rescue mission in the blink of an eye.

Our second presentation is called “Pacific Theater -  WW2 Wrecks in 8K”

Join Aron Arngrimsson and Geoff Creighton as they share Ultra High Resolution clips from famous WW2 wrecks from the Pacific Theater and tell stories of how they got the shot, the challenges they faced and the journey to becoming a underwater cinematographer.

STRAIGHT FROM THE DIVER’S MOUTH

We thrive off our customer experiences. It is what Dirty Dozen Expeditions are all about. We also work hard in improving operational logistics and creating new experiences for our itineraries in our locations.

KNOWLEDGE BASE UPDATES

During our Bikini Atoll season this year we recorded quite a few presentations and two of them are already readily available on our YouTube channel and Knowledge Base. Our latest release was Deep Stops by Mark Powell.

COMING CLEAN IS BACK

Mark, Aron and Jakub Slama from Divesoft also sat down on the beach in Bikini Island and dug deep into the history, wrecks and how to get the best of visiting the nuclear ghost fleet of Operation Crossroads.

That’s it from us for now. We look forward to some great adventures with you in the years to come and as always, don’t forget, if you are feeling lonely, then we are here to chat Dirty.

Best,

Aron Arngrímsson and the DDE Team
