    We really enjoyed diving with you and Patrick, too. My brother Dale's handle, though, is dbnewton, on SB

    Wow, lots on info! I would bet my log for that dive lists the site, my weight, the %O, the thermal protection ( matches yours), the time, and the max depth.

    ScubaBoard Invasion Central 2025 Belize

    We are definitely all 4 of us interested in joining the Belize adventure. I for one am on board for doing this Blue Hole add-on. I know that it is probably one of those once and done, been there, done that, type of dives, but i think its probably well worth doing it that once, just to...

    ScubaBoard Invasion Central 2025 Belize

    Definitely diving air for the Blue Hole, then switching to nitrox for dives 2 and 3 of that trip, if desired, makes sense. Respecting the Max Depth of enriched air blends becomes crucial on a deep dive site like the BH

    Well done. I seldom open videos, due to our dismal Internet out here, but that was worth it.

    ScubaBoard Invasion Central 2025 Belize

    You have done pretty well so far, Dennis, and Roxanne. I for one have enjoyed the few Invasions which we have joined, and the friends we have made on each of those trips, and I'm not exactly a "people person". We join the SB Invasions because your trips are well organized, other divers come...

    ScubaBoard Invasion Central 2025 Belize

    Our only previous trip to Belize, we stayed at Hamanasi, quite far to the south, several hours by boat from the Blue Hole. The divers voted in my group to not bother.......but only a 30 mnute ride....count me in. Back then, with that op, the plan was 1 tank air in an early AM dive at the hole...

    ScubaBoard Invasion Central 2025 Belize

    I saw that: "additional to the 16 in the diver package", but would not the BH trip be using up one day of our dive package, effectively reducing the package for participants to 13 dives? Is there a way for those who choose the add on to still get in the 16 dives from the package deal? Just...

    Pretty dear. $ I do love our Sola lights, but the switches and charging ports can definitely have issues.

    Favorite Memories from the SB Invasion 2024 Bonaire

    I still need to pull the memory card, and transfer images to the laptop, so i can see if any are really worth saving. All I have seen from the Invasion were the few images that I was able to transfer to the cellphone over Plaza's internot "connection". I've been too busy since getting home...

    I too have lost great tools that should never have gotten into my carry-on. :( I'm with you about hitting Divers Direct in person. Kid in a candy store!

    Shore Diving and Truck Rentals for 2024 Bonaire Invasion

    You had certainly remastered the skill by the time I did Alice with you, mid week! I drive a stick quite often at home, and you did quite well by the time i was a passenger! BTW, I was able to relocate one of the 3 sea horses that I had hoped to find, the next afternoon.

    I have just been reading the Vivid-Pix website, learning about the Memory Station Software package which I won in the Chairman's friendly photo competition on this Invasion. Vivid-Pix donated this amazing software package to the ScubaBoard Bonaire 2024 Invasion. Wow, I am impressed, this is a...

    ScubaBoard Invasion Central 2024 Bonaire

    Do not get me started on "divers" attached to a GoPro on a "Selfish Stick"! Obviously this "rant" does not hinge on the toys one picks. Over the years I have dived with some awesome diver's, who are using identical technology as those I call Zippy Go Pro, but not all divers have good situational...
