My main set of mini keys, house keys, store tags, altima keys are at the bottom of the Long Island sound.  (Long story)

Does anyone know how much it will cost to replace them? Do they need the car to make a new one?

well, if we send the koi on a mission, we'll likely never see them OR my keys again..
Do you have a pond? I was thinking of getting a small one.
But, back to the topic.. I've already gotten a new cvs card. It's kind of nice not having such a big bundle of stuff attached to my key ring. I lost the leather Hampton key ring. Sad but I found the rubber 'out motoring' one.

Yes I have a big pond with 11 Koy fish population for the past 11 years. Yes you are correct, we would most likely not see either ever again. BTW; I may have a spare Hampton key ring for you, and more, only if you come to my BBQ on July 22nd? YES!

I am a certified scuba diver.  Where did you lose the keys?  any idea of depth?  It might be possible to do a recover your keys dive.

LOL.. BigCat.. are you serious?? I was told we were in about 10 feet of water when the dingy capsized. The tide was on it's way in, with an onshore breeze of about 10-15MPH. I'm thinking we were further out, but i remember landmarks. That would be awesome, but I'm sure the salt and sand would make the keys inoperable anyway.

Paul.. I may very well stop by, and I'll bring my latest guy with me. He mentioned he'd like to meet you all. (not the same person who stopped by during the MiniQ) The one I'm with now is much more serious about me.

You and your friends are always welcome! Just let me know by registering on the Club House site so I have a chance to prepare.

well.. I DID put my wallet, treo, and camera in the ziplock - but left the keys loose in the beach bag. Lost the bag, some great clothes.. and I'm sure some things I forgot I even put in the bag. The electronics and my wallet were saved!!

depending how far offshore you were it would certainly be possible.  If there was anything you really needed on the key ring, I would be able to put something together.  If you want call me my office # is 516-378-5300 ext 110 ask for Craig
