I've never been down in October... How are the water temperatures and the ride back? In the summer I'm good with no beanie in the water and just a towel around me on the boat. Winter/spring I need that beanie and I bring my boat coat.

Red Team October is ON ISLAND! How about some updates?!

Glad you approve! I have yet to make it there, so I'm looking forward to it :-) Can't wait to see you and Tammy there!

Kayak, TripAdvisor, I'll have to search through my alerts to see the third. Oddly enough TA is the usually the first to alert me to the best deals, followed closely by Kayak. I believe TA is also the one that you can set you price. For example, I have the SEA/CUN set up to only tell me when...

Be sure to bring your cowbell! Because...well... you can never have enough cowbell!

I've got my phone set up to alert me when prices drop to a few of my favorite destinations. There are a number of websites that you can set up different routes, with your preferred prices. I always watch Coz/Cancun, but now that my daughter goes to school in Hawaii I watch that too. If you...

Hope you had a wonderful day!

By proclamation of Sallye the Lionfish Killer there will be an official Scubaboard October meet up. Date/time/location TBD

We will definitely meet up! Looking forward to it :)

Well, I guess it must be me. Since I’ve been diving less and without a buddy, my experience has been that I’m either placed with a group that has been diving together for a few days, or a group of day-trippers of various abilities (usually the latter). Where else would I be...

I was in Oahu a couple of weeks ago dropping the girl off at college. Gabe was able to fit me in at the last minute for a shore dive up at Shark's Cove. Awesome! Same great service and communication as the last time I was in town and dove with them. Had a great time, and really wished I could...

I completely get what you're saying! :) I love to poking around a shallow reef for an hour or two...but Cozumel is known for it's spectacular reef-wall system and deeper dives, and that's what most people come here for. The current can also limit 'our' kind of diving. As a solo diver I've...

Hey! I think I dove with you and Brodydog in Roatan (CCV) a few years back... I was with my friend Kari?I may see you again! I'll be on The Isle Oct 10-24 with my husband Scott. Just plane tickets so far (last minute deal!), be nailing down the rest soon. :)~Debra

We stayed at Coral Princess (I have a non-diving family so they wouldn't agree to The Villa). It was VERY convenient and an easy walk from the hotel to the Villa for pick up in the morning. One day the weather made it difficult to dock and they drove us downtown...no worries :) We love...

Only DD would get bored in Mensa group consisting of Blonde Bombshells.... ;)

The ever recurring tipping thread.... I'm always a little surprised at how MUCH everyone seems to tip, but after watching what actually happens on the boat, I wonder. Honestly, I tip because it is expected, because I understand that tips are factored into the DM and Captain wages... I would...

This confuses me... aren't you already paying more for 'valet' service? I assume so, so if you're tipping on percentage the DM with the valet service will already be getting more money in his/her pocket.

Thanks all! That sounds perfectly doable. Wasn't sure I would be ready to climb up a ladder with all my gear in possibly rough conditions. Especially 3 or more times a day :)

How difficult are the entry/exits? I understand you leave the main boat and use smaller pangas to get to the dive sites... Do you carry all your gear and tanks between boats or do you gear up on the main boat and just transfer? I assume back roll entry. How do you get back into the pangas...
