    Hose Length

    I know this is probably a stupid question, so if someone wants to flame me remember I'm asking in Basic. :) Here goes: I have a BC inflator hose that is extremely long for a new setup that I am building. Having never ordered hoses online before, I would like to know if the length of the hose...

    Wedding Rings and the Ocean

    I've never had any problem with the one on my left ring finger, however, I have to be subtle and somewhat secretive to remove the one my wife put through my nose. :rofl3: Cheers -

    New Open Water Diver

    I got most all of my certs LONG before I even met my 3rd wife who was my dive buddy until she had 3 rotator cuff surgeries, and her vision started getting worse, and she lost her confidence. Now I have a set of female gear to get rid of. But to the OP's point, let everyone you ever see or meet...

    Bucket list dive spots?

    I wish I hadn't read this thread. Back when I was working and doing well some of these were well within reach. Now on a fixed income... Not so much. I'll just take my time in the Caribbean (mostly Cozumel) and be happy. These are some awesome videos. Thanks. Cheers -

    If you had $200

    Based on your criteria, and budget: If "I" had $200 "I" would buy the I300C. You don't need the Bluetooth now. However, in 6 months, a year, or even 3 years from now you might and you won't have to spend a dime. It's a good computer and will probably serve you well. BUT it's your arm that...

    The website says they weight 4 oz. is where I got the weight, but you are probable right. Water in water should be neutral and maybe positively buoyant in salt water because it's fresh water. However, being in a container will probably make a difference. I'd be interested to know for sure...

    PLBs Can Save Your Life

    I'm wondering how they survive the pressure of depth. Would a ½ liter bottle, which weighs about 18-19 ounces be better? They are a lot cheaper. I don't care if it is purified as long as it's not salt water. I can even handle some algae in it. :D Cheers -

    I like this. 8 to a liter. ~2# / liter (can use instead of lead) and it's functional weight. At $.70 / packet + S/H it's a bargain if you are in the water for any length of time. Thank you Cheers -

    Does it come from LM configured with the 2" loop installed with the hose clamps? Cheers -

    How much sugar is in a "freezy pop"? While the liquid may help with dehydration, will the additives make you thirstier? I like the idea of a tablet that you just add water to. :wink: :D Seriously though, what about putting a water bottle in a mask pocket? I've heard of people taking a water...

    200th dive

    Congrats! Your progress has been impressive. If I had to dive the cold water that you dive in, I would still be waiting to get certified. Congrats again!
