Just booked me and the wife on it.

We were on the boat in January, but up front. I don't seem to recall the door slamming; no complaints from the couples in the room in any event. HOWEVER there did seem to be some issue with smell wafting up through the marine toilet on one of the staterooms on the starboard side. So I'd take...

Fixxer, I did the AOW course through UT Austin. We dove off that park by Mansfield Dam. Took it in the fall, so every weekend it would be a little bit colder going out. Grew to dread it, so much so that it put me right off diving for a couple of years. I had done a grand total of seven dives...

Hm, that does sound like an interesting dive....

Let me play Devil's Advocate here... I didn't find the experience of a dozen lake dives helped my buoyancy control one bit. What helped the most was a blue water live aboard where I did nothing but dive for several days in a row. Frankly, I was too miserable in Lake Travis to be able to...

Out of curiosity, where is this rebate information? I don't see anything about it on their website....

Thanks! It was all the good advice on this board that put me onto this setup in the first place!

Been looking and looking for a good reg for me and my fiancee...just picked this up from California Dive Center: Oceanic Alpha 7/SP4 Alpha 7 Octo Oceanic Pressure gauge (we're going to have wrist computers) Total for TWO regs assembled, with a bag, shipping, and the Oceanic warranty was...

My bride and I will be on the Star Dancer for the January 26 trip to South New Britain. Trying to plan some gear purchases at the moment, and we're wondering what wet suits (if any) we need for PNG. I'm really tempted to bring along just a lycra dive skin and be done with it, given what I have...
