NORTH SHORE CHARTERS

Sol Mates, a 54’ Bluewater Cruiser with a beam of 15’ features: 2 sleeping cabins, 2 heads with showers (and a bathtub), a large air conditioned/heated salon area, full galley (stove, microwave, refrigerator, table with seating), covered dive deck, and a large sundeck and foredeck area.

Sol Mates is the largest dive boat on the North Shore. This provides plenty of space and comfort on the way to the dive sites. The 2 gas engines and diesel generator are exceptionally quiet and allow for relaxation and conversation.

A spacious salon and outdoor areas allow everyone plenty of room to spread out and relax, watch videos on our HD TV, teach classes, and discuss the previous or upcoming dive with fellow divers.  We also have 2 kayaks on board for your enjoyment.

Sol Mates’ 2 cabins are separate from the salon area. One has 2 full beds and the other has 4 single births in bunk beds. This not only makes Sol Mates comfortable and desirable for the male and female diver, but also for couples. One head is between the cabins providing easy access to toilet, sink, shower, and bathtub.

DIVING OFF SOL MATES

Sol Mates’ 120 sq ft covered dive deck allows divers to get in and out of the water while staying out of the rain or hot sun. An onboard compressor provides air fills. A warm water rinse hose helps mitigate the chilly water, and a dryer is available for wet clothing and towels.

Gear storage space is available, as are standard 120v outlets for charging dive lights or cameras between dives.  We also provide steel tanks for you to use at no charge.  Meals are included in the price.

Our crews are experienced, helpful, friendly SCUBA professionals experienced in cold water diving and Great Lakes charter operations. We have a USCG certified captain and all our crew are agency certified. Dive Guides are available depending on the needs of your group. Briefings are provided so you will be confident in getting the most out of your dive.
