    When does equipment go on sale?

    Well not that it helps much for you but in Singapore as the dive season just ended a few weeks back there are sales each week, and they start pushing the OS trips to destinations that we need to fly to or local (crap) diving.

    Total dive hours

    what sort of reel for a marker bouy?

    Every diver should have a SMB, for those times when the boat has moved away to pick up another diver or just can't see you in the swell. Personally I have recently switched over to a spool, it is really simple in design .. and when used correctly will offer no chance of entanglement. You can...

    Is a computer actually necessary?

    I would just like to add that I have taken TDI courses and they were very focused on tables and showed how to dive and not need a computer. They certianly didn't push computers. Sure to dive with tables you do require some sort of depth and time montioring equipment. This does tend to be a...
