Matt the Aqua Man
Matt the Aqua-man
Well, diving a dream is now a reality. Matt Johnston has completed his 1st open water dive. On Tuesday Nov. 14th aboard the awesome dive boat Republic 7 donated by Conch republic divers, Matt completed 2 dives. The 1st being 15 minutes and the 2nd being 10 minutes. He saw tons of fish, beautiful coral and a big barracuda right in front of him. This young man is an inspiration to all of us. His tenacity is amazing. I also have to congratulate his two dive buddies, Drew Gerling and Frank Fabio. They stayed with him through tons of gear problems on the 1st day, solved them overnight. Then the big dive came. Way to go Matt. I wish I had pictures but logistics would not allow me on the boat. The Today show will be airing a special and then we will get some pictures. I might add that Matt dedicated his 1st dive to his good friend Jere Thorne. Thanks Matt, I know Jere was with you and is smiling. |
