    Question Sidemounts on a Liveaboard

    I think that's the safest way to play it with LOB diving.

    Question Sidemounts on a Liveaboard

    That might work as long as the number of sidemount folks is pretty low. Using the Belle Amie as an example, she carries something like 32 divers and her SOP is "hook BC up to tank when you arrive and then they refill your tank while attached to your BC between dives". That's the same with the...

    Question Sidemounts on a Liveaboard

    The sidemount divers I have been on LOBs with were all diving singles. I don't know if they asked for 2 and were refused or if they preferred one for shallow rec diving. With 2 I think it might have been more challenging for them boarding the pangas in Socorro off the back of the boat, but it...

    Question Sidemounts on a Liveaboard

    There were a few people diving sidemount when I was in Socorro (Belle Amie). They were using the boat standard tanks (single tank only) and the crew didn't seem to mind dealing with them and they didn't cause anybody any problems.

    Cocos Island January vs June and which boat

    I think you picked up my buddy Rick's spot. He had something come up and had to cancel so that opened up the slot. There are 5 in my group so you can hang out with us. I have not been there before and as far as I know nobody in my group has either.

    USS Kittiwake

    Dove it a couple months ago off the Aggressor. During the day people were all over and inside it like a jungle gym looking for the geocache, etc. There was one student right out of OW doing a wreck specialty class on it that was learning to run a reel inside the bow section. The DM led a...

    If memory serves the CEO had a background in aerospace engineering and/or in the aerospace industry so maybe he just went with what he knew and tried to apply that to submersibles?

    Dunno about where you live, but at my Home Depot the submersible aisle is two down from the cave diving aisle. One trip down there for essentials and then to the plumbing aisle for a hot water heater, cut the top off and then a quick run through appliances for the door from a front load washer...

    My guess - he prob knows a bunch of people involved in the SAR since that's a small community and people are sharing stuff with him and others they are buddies with privately.

    Cameron indicates that the "community" knows they had dumped their ballast and were attempting to surface when the implosion occurred.

    From what I read, the toilet is in the front of the craft by the viewing port/hatch. You draw a curtain and do your business while enjoying the view.
