Stirred, not shaken :eyebrow: Seriously, though, be well hydrated, and pay attention to how you will conserve heat and get warm topside.

Good idea, just the wrong territory. US Virgin Islands, baby. :dancingsnoopy:

I spent a week diving with Ocean Frontiers last year and I second MarkUK's sentiments. It was one of the best dive ops I have ever used. I handled my gear twice - when I got it to the boat the first day, and picking it up from the rinse tanks at the end of the trip. Captians and DMs are all...

There are tons of pictures of shipwrecks in the great lakes and the St. Lawrence in Scubaboard's galleries and in the galleries at thedecostop.com

Frilled Shark - Chlamydoselachus anguineus There is an entry here: http://www.elasmo-research.org/education/topics/de_ecomorphotypes.htm

Lithium Polymer batteries. I'll be interested to see what kind of depth this package can handle: http://www.globalsurfnews.com/news.asp?Id_news=24445

Do you eat these?

If you're talking cage dives, you ought to get a hold of a book titled the Devil's Teeth by Susan Casey. Read about the Farallones (islands about 30 mi off of San Francisco.) If I were going to go for a shark cage experience, I would think seriously about doing it there. Read the book and...

Lynne, Joel at Techdivinglimited is selling a complete set up (with a DIN reg, not the goofy screw into the bottle with no valve one) including SPG, hose, DSS "hose hat", and OPV for around $135 and if you catch it before it ends today, a further "white sale" discount.

The one and only reg I have had freeze up on me was a Genesis Oz Ti, the second stage of which I think is very much like a G2000. This was in water that wasn't that cold - maybe 42 degrees. Could be that the reg wasn't tuned well, but it froze pretty fast after free-flowing (intentionally, I...

We dove with Dive Tek during the week between Christmas and New Years, once on a two dive trip and once on a three dive "long range" trip. I am a trimix-certified instructor, my daughter is a Junior Advanced Open Water diver. On each of the trips, there was a mixed group of divers. Once, I...

Nice photo! Where?

Hey Wildcard - You're certainly entitled to your opinion (you know what they say, everyone has one...) but I have to ask you, have you actually dove with Fathom Five anytime recently? Your beef seems to be the price you were quoted for a tank fill and opinions based on experiences with...

Opened a thread here: http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=168096 Should be a lively discussion.

A discussion got started in another thread on what I would characterize as the ethics of diving with know (and possibly undisclosed) medical contraindications. Opinions being what they are, in my view it is wrong to dive with these conditions. While it might be conceptually desirable to...

Absolutely, positively in now way was I implying anything about this particular incident, merely responding to the point being made. I would like to express my opinion more fully but out of respect for friends and family of the lost diver I don't want to do so in this thread at the risk of...

I get your point, but respectfully disagree. Here's why: If one wanted to end it diving, went solo shore diving against a current to bring on an "event", tethered one's self to a fixed point in shallow water, and left a note with instructions, then maybe okay. Otherwise, doing so...

Sounds like a great find. Congratulations to those responsible. From http://www.japundit.com "One of Australia’s enduring WWII maritime mysteries has apparently been solved. During the Pacific War, elite Japanese submariners in their ‘midget’ vessels launched a daring raid on Sydney...

Thank you, Larry!

I searched, couldn't find it. I'm sure it's been asked a hundred times. How do you insert a "full" sized photo in the body of a post versus attaching a file or having a thumbnail size photo linked to the Member Gallery?
