    Anyone hear about a diver missing off Kahala?

    You know, last night, a little after dark (I didn't note the time) I heard sirens. It is a fairly common sound and sometimes I go on my lanai and have a look. I saw a very strange sight. It was an emergency vehicle of some kind (not a ladder truck and bigger than an EMT van, but vannish...

    Halona Blowhole 12-6-08 pics

    Is anyone diving this spot tomorrow (Saturday)? I don't want to dive with you (well, I probably do, but this is just a recon request), just see how you get to and from the entry site. Anyone?

    Suggestions for a romantic evening on Oahu

    The Pacific Beach Hotel Oceaniaum (or something like that) restaurant has this giant aquarium in the dining room. You can arrange for the "mermaid" to bring down a sign saying most anything you want (for a price). Sort of romantic. Pacific Beach Hotel - Oceanarium Restaurant I second...

    Halona Blowhole 12-6-08 pics

    If it is where I think it is, there is a long walk down sharp boulders to get in (balance being my problem), some heavy surf may come up, only one way in and out, and then, the climb back up the sharp bolders (I'm out of shape and old).

    Halona Blowhole 12-6-08 pics

    You know, sometime I want to meet you guys at the blow hole so I can scope it out. I wouldn't want to dive the first time, just recon for future possibility. I suspect I would not survive the entry and exit, but I sure would like to watch you guys do it once.

    Pet peeves of SCUBA diving

    OK, I'll say it. My pet peeve is the weight of the equipment I have to lug around. And, I don't like currents.

    Air fills on Oahu

    The one and only time I've had Sealancers air, it was oily tasting. I get my air from Breeze but it is in Kaimuki. I'm not sure what will be convenient for you from Mililani. Contact Deep Sea in Haleiwa. They may have work and cheap air. I've filled there a few times but it was about $6...

    Oahu's lost son is coming home....

    What???? I didn't know you were moving back. SB visitors to Maui are going to be so disappointed. So, I guess, welcome is in order. Will you be living in Aiea? You bringing your car?

    Killer whales off Waikiki ?

    Actually, I have jumped in the water with wild Orcas. I even knew his name Everest. He was a large male. These are the resident whales of Washington State. I sang into my snorkel hoping he would come and take a look. He ignored me; didnÃÕ even come close. His dorsal was at least 6...

    Killer whales off Waikiki ?

    The flopped over dorsal fin sounds like an Orca to me. Correct me if I'm wrong, Thal, but doesn't that indicate not-so-perfect health in a wild Orca? They may be more dangerous to non-humans, but the beauty is that they are intelligent enough to tell the difference between something to eat...

    Wrecks, new buddies and weak personalities...

    You know, recently I went on a dive with a "club" and the conditions were very rough. This was my first time on this particular boat. I had a minor equipment problem during the dive and ended the dive very quickly. The dive club leader appeared to be annoyed, as he felt he had to accompany me...

    History of the "Michelin" reef off Ulua beach

    Tim, I'm not sure if the tires were dumped to make a reef in Puget Sound, but there are certainly a few piles here and there. However, not being a temperate area, we don't expect coral. The tires do make a few great hiding places for different critters, though, so much life can be found...

    Rant: Why do so many locals insist on backing into parking spots?

    I didn't comment yesterday. But when I got back from lunch, I checked Scuba board, was the first to read the OP's post, and started laughing. I had just anticipated backing into my parking space! There were no other cars around and I wouldn't have blocked anyone, but I decided against it...

    Why so hard...

    I got one about a year ago. I ordered from the Olympus site direct. Now, however, I'm bummed because my charger isn't working. Anyway, I never use the housing (maybe been used 5 times) because I'm a terrible photographer, so I would sell it to you. I don't have a pay pal account or...

    Sept 20 - Pt. Lobos video

    Funny you should bring up Star Wars music. Those can lights looked like light sabers. Was the force with you?
