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 weather.

An onboard compressor provides air fills and warm water rinse hose helps mitigate the chilly Lake Superior water and a dryer is available for drying clothes and towels as well.  The Sol Mates now has a hot water shower on the back deck for divers!

​Ample gear storage space is available, as are standard 120v outlets for charging dive lights or camera gear.
