Dutch Springs is full of them too. The rumor there is someone "accidently" contaminated the quarry and vis has improved steadily over the years. Can they actually travel on dive gear? I know a few diver who have dove at both Dutch Springs and Millbrook. Ty

Usually all of my dives are planned to nth degree, including the plan and the plan +, objective of the dive, turn times, etc. Most of my dives this year have been for a specific reason such as wreck survey, wreck penetration, diving deeper, deco stops and so on. However, this weekend was our...

Wow, you are my hero. I love diving off of Jersey, but living in the Keys is becoming my number one diving dream. I tend to get a bit figity and cranky after a couple weeks of not diving. Luckily I was able to get to the quarry last weekend. I've got dives scheduled up here through November...

I don't plan on this being a political discussion like the last 911 thread, but who knows where it will go... I've had a number of people ask me over the last several days what I was going to do this Wednesday. As some of you on here may recall from earlier posts, I was there that day almost...

Hmmm let me get this straight. Leisure Pro took out the tank strap, reversed the buckle, put it back in and then shipped it to you. Now they took your Aqua Lung octo and took out the snap ring.... Wow, those guys must really hate you... Sounds more like strike one for Mares and strike one...

Jeff I have PST HP 120's, and I have never had a problem getting full fills for them, either with air or nitrox. Side by side the PST 120's are not much bigger then the Al 80's for 50% more gas. But then again, HP's are more common arround here then LP's so maybe the shops around here are...

I've never had a problem with any item I have bought on-line. Although, as with everything in liife there are trade offs. If you buy on-line you give up the ability to touch, tryout and have the face to face interaction during the buying process. But you do get a lower price. So you need to...

There are a number of people that I know that use the Chute 2 with doubles. One of them is the owner of the LDS I go to. None of them use doubles all of the time. Mostly they use singles, but on trips to Truk and such they double up 80s and the Chute 2 works great for them. Now if your plan...

Tom I for one will be very disappointed if you are no longer here. I personally have learned a lot from you. As someone I perceive as being a true, been there, done that wreck diver I have come to value your advise. As we all know, some people can not take a joke, laugh at themselves, and...

I have no idea how to vote in the poll, but I have poseidens and oceanics. I have a Ckylon on the main, a Odin as my backup and two Oceanics waiting to go on stages. The Oceanic's were the first regs I bought, so thats why I'm going to use them. They are good regs but they tend to freeflow so...

I don't think the point in the Last Dive was so much artifact collecting as it was the ego trip. Yes, there are a lot of junk collectors who need a crate of plates from the Doria, or skull from Uboat, or even a live shell. To me that's no more exciting then driving around my neighborhood on...

No, that's a requirement for owning a LDS. How do you make a small fortune in diving? Start with a large fortune... OK, it's a very very old joke, but hey, no one can accuse me of being original. Ty

I agree.... very well said Ty

There's a guy on EBay that sells SS bolt snaps for a great price. He sells them in lots of 15 for about $2.00 each. They are high quality and so far I've pretty much converted all of my brass to SS. Ty

Wait, it can't be the End of the Tread... We Only have 6 pages. we still have another 400 to go... So, what side was the velco on? Can you take a picture of the guys at the LDS scratching their heads? :jester: Sorry UP, should of locked the upstairs windows too :out: Ty

Hey Mike I have one of the enclosed reels and I haven't had any problems with it. It can jam and the line can slip out where the cover meets the sides. I guees you could birdnest or overrun it, but the tension knob works well. The thing I like about it I don't have to worry about anything...

When I quit smoking (it was a long time ago, thank god) I needed something to replace reaching for a cigarette. There were always times I would light up.... driving, after dinner, after.. well, you get the idea. Anyway, instead of reaching for a cigarette I started chewing gum. Once you get...

naw, duct tape was too expensive... just zip tied it on... Ty

Boy, I take a couple days off and it takes 4 pages to thread a CAM strap. Wow, I guess you guys missed me :D Sorry, just wanted to make sure I could get on this thread too :out: Ty

I've resisted even reading this tread, and to tell you the truth, I wish I hadn't. I was there on 911. I worked across the street at American Express' Headquarters. I was in our building making sure everyone got out and was helping the police set up a command post when the first tower fell...
