    Key Largo

    I'll be spending 10 days in Key Largo at the end of July. I'm going to dive the Spiegel Grove but am also looking for some easy dives to break in one of our group who hasn't been in the water for a number of years. Anyone have any suggestions as to dive operators and sites? Thanks.

    changing batteries in Aladin Pro?

    I took my Aladin Sport to batteriesplus and the owner called and said he couldn't change the battery. The shop wants $135.00 to change the battery. I hate to let it go but it appears I'm in the market for a new computer.

    changing batteries in Aladin Pro?

    I'm headed to batteriesplus tomorrow. The shop wants $135 to change the battery in my old Aladin Sport. Its been a great computer but I was ready to junk it and buy a new computer. There is a BatteriesPlus store several miles from me. It will be worth a try. Thanks for the info!

    Dale Hollow

    Has anyone had any experience in diving at Dale Hollow Lake? I was told that the water is very clear. The Army Corp.. website mentions some diving sites and I thought it might be a good trip.

    Help with picking locations

    I cruised in January and dove Dominica and Barbados. We were on Celebrity and they contracted with Dive Dominica. We dove L'Abymm which was a wall dive and Champaigne Reef which was a shallow reef with bubbles coming from the ocean floor. They use a fairly large boat which was good for giant...

    I've had the Balance since 2003 and its been great. The pocket you mentioned can be a little annoying but its never really been a problem. I've maintained the lifetime warranty but I'm really curious about a backplate/wing setup.

    Dive Rite Venture

    I'm once again thinking about a backplate/wing system (single tank). Scuba Toys has a closeout on the Dive Rute Venture wing for $159.00. It sounds like a great deal but the wing sure looks different from the DSS/Oxycheq/Hog wings. Anyone have any experience with the Venture wing and how it...
