I'm a new diver (certified this month) and plan on diving a fair amount over the next 12 months (should get 100 dives in). I'm not big on lugging equipment around the globe with me, and I'm wondering what my next piece of equipment should be. I have mask, fins, snorkle and a couple of wetsuits (surfing, not diving, but good enough for now).. I'm leaning towards a computer. Advice would be appreciated. There are two of us, and my wife is a little more conservative than I. Should we acquire two computers off the bat (probably going to be doing a fair amount of multi-levels... and Nitrox is probably in our future).
If so, any advice on how to buy a computer?... wrist v. console etc... or, should we do the whole bc/reg/octopus etc. first? My feeling is that those pieces of equipment are readily available for rent or included in dive prices, and fairly easy to use relative to a computer. They are also a hassle to lug, as we live in NY, most of our diving will require travel.
Thanks,
Matt
