Why do you have a passion for this hobby?
I've always enjoyed the mystery of the ocean and watched many episodes of Jacque Cousteau's adventures. It's also very relaxing as a stress managing activity after a long day at work.

Why do you value URS?
URS is a great group of passionate hobbyists who will steer you to the right direction no matter how many years of experience you have. As they say "the knowledge of many will always top the knowledge of one."

Memorable Moments-
The most memorable event thus far has been the event at the Seneca Park Zoo. It was well organized for a first time event for this group as an official club. I got to meet many of the people that I've only known by their screen names.
