It was standing room only as TGADC staff member Bill Harrison presented information about his 2006 trip to dive the Andrea Doria. Bill presented photographs from the history of the Andrea Doria and the ship that collided with it, the Stockholm. Bill discussed preparations for the trip including the equipment that was used and how it was prepared, his personal preparation including practicing survival skills and the logistics of the trip. Bill even had copies of the paperwork required from the boat for everyone to see. 

Bill enthusiasm for the dive and technical diving in general was obvious. The audience was thrilled to hear and see what it takes to make a dive like this and had many questions for Bill.

Many thanks to Bill Harrison for taking time out of his hectic schedule to share a truly memorable and exciting experience with everyone.
