    Anyone know where I can get the wrist band for my Mares Puck computer? I upgraded to A/I and want the watch band to keep the Puck on my BC as a backup.

    Mares Icon or Oceanic Excursion

    I have the Excursion and about 70 dives on it. I love it. It is very comfortable and the cumberbun is barely noticable when I put it on. I am merely a rec diver so I can not speak to the functionality of it for tek diving, but I have been very happy. Eric.

    another recommendation thread (simple unit)

    I too am a fan of Oceanics and just bought an OC1. However, I have been using the Mares puck. Simple, elegant, and has been a wonderful computer. Can't go wrong with this as an entry computer. And you can use it in a console or wrist mount. Eric

    Dive site coordinates

    They were off eleuthera island. The dives were with Blackbeards, so they probably are their own sites. If I can't find them I will just try and get them when I go back down this summer. Eric

    New member needing advice on diving in The Bay Islands of Honduras

    I am going to be there at Alton's on Utila the end of the month for a couple weeks to complete my divemaster cert. From what I came across doing research for the trip I figured there are going to be more people at Utila, but I too wanted to avoid the crowds I expected to see on Roatan. Eric
