Is she up ????
Wouldn't be able to sleep if I knew I was that close.
I would even suck on the end of an air hose from a compressor just to attach a rope.

You need to shoot some video of that thing when it breaks the surface...........its like raising the titanic. Rent some dive equipment and hook some air bladders up to it. You will have it up in no time.

I cant wait till you guys find it. I feel sorry for the lonely X-jet in the knee deep, brown whip cream...

Shait, just kidnap a diver and make him bob for a ski.
That thing is worth the federal rap.

If I was close to you I'd be out there with my scuba tonight. I'm gonna try to find an anchor and rope in 40 feet of water tomorrow for my dad. Good luck with the ski!!!!

its sounds easy to swim that deep but it's not. Its absolute 0 visibility once you break the surface you don't even know which direction you are swimming, way to creepy for me. We had a 20ft pvc pipe(till we lost it) and poked it a couple of times and feel pretty good that it's his ski. But it windy every day and its hard to find it before you drift away. It's still there and there's a good storm rolling today so we can't try again till it calms down.

tips:
get about 60' of 1/2" rope and tie something heavy to it - a diver's weight belt with 20# to 30# in it should do. Tie a good size float on the other end. A couple boat bumpers will work and are easy to come by
locate the ski on the sounder and then probe it with your PVC.
when you think you've hit it. drop the weight belt on it. with 30#, it'll go down fast enough that current won't move it. let all the rope out of the boat with the float. The other reason for the heavy weight is to keep the wind from blowing the weight off the mark.
send diver down the rope to the bottom. If you are lucky - he'll be right on top of the ski.
