No, I am not set on a liveaboard. I am really going to be based in Kuala Lumpur, should I just dive in Malaysia or is it worth it to go to Thailand?

I am going to be in malaysia and thailand in late aug/early sept and was looking at liveaboards in Thailand. They all seem to operate from oct to april! Is August a bad season or something? Does anyone have recommendations for diving during this time in malaysia or in thailand?

I looked on travelocity and it looked like there was a lot of availability in key west. I am not sure where exactly in key west you are looking to stay, but one example is the radisson (it may be the cheapest): Nights Rate per Night (Before Taxes) Total Price Nights Rate...

Keep in mind that an AL80 when empty is 4-6 pounds bouyant. You should do your bouyancy check the way you described with an almost empty tank or at 15' where your wetsuit isn't as bouyant. I use about 5 pounds of weight with a 3/2mm in freshwater.

Like all products BC's are an evolution. Backplates have been around for a long time. My LDS owner said he used a backplate many years ago. If you think of software like a word processor, manufacturers are constantly adding new features. Some of the features are nice, but for the most part...

I wear mine while diving and use daily disposables. I can throw them away and not worry at all. I usually carry a few spare sets with me no matter what sport I am doing.

I bought a UBS Chamleon Nitrox computer and the LDS didn't set it up for Nitrox. The owner is out until Wednesday and I would love to get it Nitrox ready (even though I am not diving for the next few weeks). Does anyone know the procedure to do this?

Clearly transderm scop and dramamine work well for seasickness. What other remedies have people tried and had consistently work? Someone mentioned that they had used the relief-band and that it didn't really work. But I interpreted the post to mean you didnt get sick when you had it on, but when...

I totally agree with you Scott. I went to a LDS the other day and they said that they would match online prices, but not give you a warantee. They also said the warantee for every regulator manufacturer except mares includes free parts as long as the regular is serviced every year. This doesn't...

I have the aluminum plate from Gary (got it from eBay) the piece is put together very well, harness installed with crotch strap, all slots and holes that I need are present and it was dirt cheap. I also ordered an STA from him and got a very good price on it.

Ok, my girlfriend decided she wanted to stay at a more touristy area where there is a lot more to do. We are planning to stay at Kuta beach. Any suggestions?

I am a beginning diver (20 dives) so it sounds like Tulamben and Menjangan island for me. I am looking for mid to high end accomodations, which would you suggest?

I am going to be in bali in August, does anyone have any suggestions for resorts, huts, hotels or whatever to stay at during that time?

If you get a TIVO box you can setup an automated search for keywords such as scuba or dive. TIVO will automatically scan the descriptions of all programs on all channels and record the ones with the keywords.

are you diving with a dive club? I am looking to get in 2 dives on one weekday each week. I just got a 7mm suit so I can go below the 45 ft thermocline :)

REI has 1/8" bungee for .15/foot

I am 5' 9" 150lbs. in a new 7mm farmer john with hood, gloves and regular BC (which is a bit bouyant, which is whyi am switching to a BP) in salt water I needed about 20 lbs. Hopefully when I switch to a BP and wings without all the foam insulation I can drop a few pounds. The jacket BC is...

I just sold my Audi TT last week and bought a subaru impreza wrx just so I could carry my dive gear. The audi could just barely hold 1 tank and gear in the trunk. Add a second tank and the gear had to go in the drivers seat. This left no room for a cooler (or a second set of gear for a...

Crrink I personally would be going after the whole amount. They have showed a complete and utter lack of integrity. Playing the nice guy is only going to get you screwed. Let the credit card company work it out, that is why you pay 2-3% on each transaction. After threats of litigation for...
