I figured I might as well post this on the off chance one of my BT colleagues happened to see a ladies 5mm wetsuit off the side of the road this morning. We were traveling north through town from Dive Friends to The Lake around 10:30. Anyone see it? Anyone retrieve it? Thanks and my blue lipped buddy thanks you as well.

I got my directions wrong...obviously we were headed in a southerly direction and not north.

Hi everyone,

I'm the blue lipped buddy, Suzanna.
Thank you for the help!!! I appreciate it.
Would be nice to get the suit back if it's
found because the water is soooooooo
cold.. but I guess you all know it ;)

Good luck getting it back, we hit a thermocline at Andrea I at 50 feet this morning dropped from 79 to 77 or 25C in new money. The cold upwelling was at 30 feet on the way back brrr.

Blue Lipped Buddy!!!!!!!
She wore her retired wet suit that had so many dives logged on it I can't count.

She dives many times a day and needs that new suit back.

Sooooo I am posting a $100.00 American cash reward
for the return of her suit.

That's easy for me to pledge as the American $$$$ isn't worth much these days!!!!!!!!!!!!

But our Blue Lipped Buddy is worth a million.

I thought you were trying to make it sound like my fav Karaoke song

"Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini"
!!

Hope you get it back Suus

Bruce, Suus. Hope you find the wetsuit. We all know what it's like trying to dive when cold and it isn't fun.

I am a bit curious. Is this a similar situation where you put something on the roof, something I do all the time with my coffee cup, and forgot about it? :-) The way you described it, it seemed that way.

Barry,
It was in the bed of the truck on top of the tank & BCD below the edge of the tailgate.

Pretty much what I thought. It just reminded me of the countless coffee mugs I've lost in the past.

Again best of luck finding it. Bonaireans are the most honest people I've encountered and hopefully one found it but just doesn't quite know where to take it.

Bruce, check with Michael Gaynor at Chat'n browse near Sand Dollar grocery. He said he found a dive bag in the street on the 15th.

Shed her wetsuit? Someone is REALLY getting into the Sorobon thing me thinks!

Clarification: She lost her wetsuit from the back of a truck. It blew off the bed while driving down the road. Nothing to do with "the Sorobon thing" me knows!!!!!!!!!!!
