 Bar Harbor: Dive In Theater-A Look At Life On The Sea Floor
Posted by mainetodo on Monday, February 12 @ 13:49:11 PST
Spring, Summer, Fall: Of the thousands who visit the Bar Harbor region each year, very few get to see what's going on below the surface of the sea...until now. A graduate of the nearby College of the Atlantic, Ed Monat runs a charter service with a bit of a twist. He operates out of a 51 foot boat named the "Seal" and delivers live video images from a handheld underwater camera. He dives with camera in hand capturing sights and sounds from the bottom of Frenchman Bay transmitted to an LCD screen on the main deck of the boat where everyone aboard can view amazing creatures without even getting wet. His assistant on deck narrarates as Ed takes you on a journey along the floor of the Atlantic Ocean, and passengers are encouraged to communicate directly with Ed as he makes his way underwater. To end this amazing experience with a bang Ed resurfaces with a bag filled with whatever sea creatures
he has gathered up along the way to share with participants on deck. All creatures are then released back to the ocean after viewing. Come check out this truly unique experience out of Bar Harbor, a Dive-in Theater!
