Anyone use Divers for annual farm setup?

    Hello, I'm curious to know if anyone currently uses divers for their annual farm installations?
    I'm looking to source a local Massachusetts diver to assist with helical anchor installations, so looking for any advice and recommendations on divers. As well as, how do you get by without using a diver for establishing farm anchor stability if you don't use one.
    Thanks in advance!

    @john_lovett Hey John,
    We do not use divers unless we are recovering gear - but we also do not use helical anchors. We can set our gear from a barge. We chose this route because our site is 25+ feet, ripping current, and 10 acres so we didn't want to incur the risk and expense of a diver setting all those anchors for us twice a year.
    I may have some divers in RI who I could recommend. Let me know if you would like their info.
    Suzie

    @john_lovett I'm up on the north shore and know a diver... no idea if he'd have availability but I can ask.
