Figuratively speaking yes. There seems to be this added fear that a drysuit requires excess skill and is difficult to use. The reality is no where near what others make it to be. If you have the appropriate amount of thermal protection on under the drysuit. Vs. The appropriate amount of thermal...

@Ollie L. Sent you a pm. I would highly recommend giving them a call. They are local to you. I would spend my time and money training in New England as that is where you live. If you can dive in the cold dark water up there then Florida is a bathtub. I am a proponent of training how I will be...

There is not a specific Dutch forum, but there are frequent posts about Dutch here: Pennsylvania / New York / New Jersey

Start there. As far as brand: it's mostly like comparing Nike to Adidas sneakers. They are all sneakers, it really comes down to preference. All wings hold air. Find the style and color of your choosing, just make sure what you buy has an appropriate amount of lift for your needs.

I heard Frank sold the boat. Know who the new owner is?

I would consider buying wreck line from dive gear or the sorts. Manta also makes some rebuild kits that include a predetermined amount of line. #24 is the thin stuff, #36 is the thick stuff.

Defender.com Expensive stuff, but you buy once and cry once. It's listed under competion line. A side note: you could also try hollow core braided fishing line. It is also made from dyneema. Jerry Brown is the standard. I believe they make a 200lb. I use 130lb to fish offshore. The 130 I have...

Save the heartache. Just buy zip dry gloves.

I had a buddy this weekend that was deaf. It got me thinking, we use a rudimentary form of sign language in diving. But how many divers have a more advanced knowledge of sign language? Do you use it for formal underwater communication with your buddies? If I need to have a longer discussion...

Just for clarification, are these wings currently owned single tank wings? Or are they dou les wings? There is a difference in width.

I fully understand this. I was just responding to the OP.

I wish the shearwater phone app was capable of dive planning. Instead of using the computer itself or having to open multideco or the sorts. Maybe even plan a dive and reverse upload it to the computer. Then you would have a reference to click to while doing the dive so you knew what stops you...

I think it's possible now. 20 years ago probably not. Just off the top of my head.. Piston regulator MiFlex hoses Silicone mouth pieces Dive watch Drysuit with silicone seals Plastic fins Silicone mask All of those avoid latex and rubber. That took me 10 seconds of thought. The difficult...

I've seen a few that had s600's. I do not think brand mattered. Everyone I talked too was going for smallest/lightest reg they could find.

Welcome to the dark side. Try a weight belt first. I think you will be surprised how little weight you will need.

I have a spare dui tls350. That fits all those measurements but it has size 9 men's boots on it....

Yellow stripe by chance?

Mixing the oxygen in to the tank is the most dangerous part. Once that is done you are essentially dealing with a high pressure cylinder the rest of the steps. You said they mix ccr cylinders... One of those is oxygen, the other being diluent (usually trimix for deeper dives) If they own a...
