Greetings. Plans for our 2024 conference in January are moving along nicely. We have already secured six speakers who have agreed to be presenters at the conference. I am attaching an image of the program cover. This image is from an early ’50s (or thereabouts) painting by George Wilhelms. George was a very close friend of Art McKee who was a world-famous diver and early explorer of the 1715 Fleet wreck sites. Art McKee is depicted in the painting. This creation is owned by Mrs. Art McKee and can be viewed at the History of Diving Museum located in Islamorada, in the Florida Keys, where it is on loan. This museum also has a large collection of Art McKee memorabilia and artifacts. Mrs. McKee very kindly gave us permission to use the image.
Our programs from past conferences have become somewhat of a collector’s item. We are sure that this latest effort will be very popular with attendees and collectors. Look for more updates regarding our conference in the near future.

Good morning Ben,
I’m up early to begin my day of flying(a round trip from San Francisco, CA to Los Cabos Mexico and back). I would like to purchase a ticket to the Conference, but didn’t see the link yet. I will check back later today. Wishing you a happy and successful day.
Sorry, I just double checked my email and saw the update that tickets now will go on sale mid-September. Looking forward to the Conference!
