Sunrise – Park Work Overnighter

If you are ready to trade the standard weekend reef crawl for a purpose-driven trip focused on technical mastery and conservation, it is time to pack your gear for the Sunrise – Park Work Overnighter. Starting Thursday afternoon, June 18th, through the morning of Saturday, June 20th, the Spartan Scuba dive team is heading back to Hood Canal for a two-night operational stay. We are dedicating this trip to building, maintaining, and expanding the premier Hood Canal underwater dive park that we have the privilege of developing and stewarding.

This is a roll-up-your-sleeves event combining the thrill of technical scuba diving PNW style with professional underwater site management. We will be logging multiple work dives on Thursday and Friday to shift heavy marine structures and modify the site.

The Prerequisites & Gear

Because safety and precision are paramount when executing underwater construction, any divers wishing to assist with physical park tasks must be self-sufficient and meet the following standards:

• Lift Bag Proficiency: Completely comfortable independently operating a lift bag on items up to 60 pounds.
• Redundant Gas: Must carry an extra sling/stage/bail-out bottle dedicated strictly for lift bag inflation.
• Rentals: The Spartan Scuba dive team has core gear and drysuits available for rent at the shop, but we do not rent lift bags or sling/stage bottles for operational work.

Lodging & Amenities

We are staying on-site at Sunrise Resort, which means we get to take full advantage of their top-tier amenities. Expect on-site air fills, dedicated gear rinse stations, and a functional hot tub for that crucial post-dive thaw after a hard day of underwater labor.
