Sitting and reading and have to jump in. I have very limited experience diving with strangers - two boat dives on vacation. Only one other person brought their own gear, and I buddied with him. We did a quick pre-dive, not only did we confirm our air set-up, but that they both were functional...

Texas Mike, Thank you for the great links, I write this with tears in my eyes from the laughter. Only half way through the redneck jokes, gotta go back! Bill

Personally I like the Polls. WWII was hard on them, and they are the butt of a lot of jokes, but they make a darn good sausage. Bill

I always spit in my wetsuit and pee in my mask. The only problem is after diving people are always saying I look like I have jaundice. :D Bill You Know someone was going to say it! 500psi

Try DiveInn http://www.scubastore.com/eng/index.asp Know what you mean about the $. I really like my LDS, but.. I would not have the amount of quality gear I have if I only went there. Not to say they don't sell quality, just at twice the price. They have worked with me on a few items...

The IDI has got "tester's choice" by Rodales. http://www.scubadiving.com/gear/2001gear/2001bcs.shtml Hope that helps. Where to buy? What a can of worms! The idea that if I pay twice as much for a Scubapro MK25 at my LDS vs DiveInn online will get me a safer piece of "Life Support" equipment...

I am newly certified also, and did two different trips with Lahaina Divers. http://www.lahainadivers.com One day was the backside of Molokini, the other to Lana'i. The crew was very helpful, and neither of the trips were crowded. The backside of Molokini was awesome, and I felt very...

Where I live there is one LDS, which is staffed by some really nice people, but... they want over $800.00 after tax for a Knighthawk. On a different thread multiple people said they bought one around $360.00, if anyone knows where I can get one for that please let me know. Thanks!

The current temp. where the dive is planned is 50.1. burrrrr
