First, let me state that I don not think that what the TSA is doing really does much for security. The body scanners don't see everything and I think we should be profiling people like there no tomorrow. Israel has it right but that isn't politically correct. With that said I don't even...

Thanks for the info.

It's more a question of what you're using them in.

LP is a grey market dealer. No different than all the others in other industries (i.e. cameras, electronics, etc.) If you choose to buy from them you are taking a calculated risk in that there is no manufacturers warranty. You instead have LP's warranty. BUT...You most likely save 25% or...

As I've said in other forums along these same lines. Don't always hold PADI responsible for the course. The shop is 90% of the quality of the course. I did PADI EAN and we not only learned the tables but had to demonstrate an understanding thereof. I'm not in love with PADI but I've found...

I have a Proton Metal and my wife has the regular Proton. I've been diving it for four years now from Texas to the Caribbean to the Maldives at depths from 10' to 115'. Both regs breathe great in all situations. I've never had a problem at all with them. In fact I just bought an Proton Ice...

I agree with Damselfish. If you paid $250 for the books and DVD you were ripped off. I did a quick search and found the AOW pack for $80-$100 in several places. I can't say that I love PADI but in reality they are not any more expensive than the other agencies. In fact, I've been looking at...

My wife and I were on the Maldives Aggressor (Aggressor Fleet | The ultimate in live-aboards since 1984) in April of 2009. It was a FANTASTIC trip. I’ve never seen so much sea life. We were able to swim with a huge school of manta’s saw several whale sharks and a couple of Marlin...

Thanks for the reply. My wife and I don't care about the condition of the rooms as long as they are clean. A couple of more questions. How was the shore diving in front of the hotel? Did the room have a fridge? We were hoping to buy sandwich stuff for lunches. How far is town? Can...

Before you drop $1,500 I personally would advise you to start a little lower. As you said, you know nothing about U/W photography. That includes not knowing if you really like it. I have had three canon cameras with the canon housing. I started off with an A series and now have a G10 with...

Just wondering what the feeling are today about this topic? Anybody.....

ScubaToys all the way. I lived in Houston and now in Austin and haven't anyone that offers quality for the price. Ty

Hi All, My wife and I are headed to Grand Cayman staying at the Sunset House in January. I would love to hear any advice, must see's, don't see's, etc. I'd also welcome any past experience with Sunset house. Thanks, Ty

Thanks for the report.

WOW!!! Can I have some of what you are smoking? The lionfish didn't pack up the U-Haul and move halfway around the world to the Atlantic "to find better grounds for its young.." They were released there by man. As to your comment that they aren't destroying anything did you read the...

Vicky, Thanks for the update. My wife and I are looking forward to the trip. Your info is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again. Ty

Thanks for the info. The Aggressor has two itineraries. We won't know which one we will be diving until we get there. The first is of North Malé, South Malé, Felidoo Atolls and the second is of the Ari Atoll. Thanks again for the info. Ty

Come on....somebody's been there.

Well, we finally booked it. After weeks of going round and round between American Airlines and the various dive operators we managed to get a trip put together. It's amazing how hard it is to book a trip using miles....Anyway, my wife and I are set to spend a week on the Maldives Aggressor in...

Need any opinions that are out there on a trip to Indonesia. Particularly, the North Sulawei area. Works out that this is the best option for Cathy and I due to airline mile restrictions etc. We are looking at the Aggressor Fleet as our liveaboard. Opinions....Come on everybody's got...
