Venture III Captains Paul and Ruth Hepler have been supporters of New Jersey’s Reef Program for more than 20 years. The Heplers operate the dive charter vessel Venture III out of Shark River in Belmar, NJ. Aboard the Venture III, the Heplers have helped build and monitor New Jersey reefs and assisted reef personnel with sinking numerous vessels, rock and concrete on reef sites off Monmouth and Ocean counties. They often revisit these sites at a later date with a dive group to observe marine life and hopefully harvest a few lobsters. Paul and Ruth are both certified scuba divers and licensed captains. They particularly enjoy exploring low-profile wrecks that have settled into the sand, searching for partially buried artifacts and other benthic indicators that may to the experienced diver be evidence of more significant wreckage. The Heplers deserve special thanks for their contributions and effort to help enhance and improve New Jersey’s marine environment. *NJ Reef News 2007 |
