I have that same OMS wing you do on my singles rig. Is it wider than other wings? Yes, but it has never caused me any issues whatsoever. It's made very well. For doubles I use a DSS Torus wing, that wing as well is wider than the average comparable wing but again, no issues, no taco effect, etc.

The Otter Atlantic I wouldn’t consider a thin suit. The regular Atlantic comes in their new standard ripstop material which is still pretty hearty, the Atlantic HD is made from the really thick material that the Otter Britannic was made from.

I have an Otter Atlantic HD. Fit is spot on. No complaints really, have had zero issues with it.

They're tough to find anymore, I have two sets of 7/8" neck doubles. XS Scuba / Thermo makes a new one that works but its pricey... Used still your best bet.

Closest one to you is Roanoke Island Outfitters, but you’ll see more sharks if you go out of Morehead City. There’s a boat that goes out of Hatteras but I’m not sure what sites they’re hitting, I’ve never gone out with them.

Nice finds!!

Welcome from a fellow Northern Virginian. Plenty of local/driving distance diving around!

Personally I would trim that and keep that area clear.

I already have one of these and it has developed a separation at one of the seams and is starting to fray. No way to take it apart and repair. Looking for a replacement in great condition as this wing works well for me.

The 1105 can be pretty hit or miss, and I'm not sure how often any operators go out there, you would probably need your own boat.

U-352 is easier to get out to. U-85 they get out to less frequently - I know of only one operator running to the U-85. The U-85 is colder (by NC standards...) and less viz generally. 90% of people would probably prefer the U-352, the U-85 has a special spot in my heart.

Welcome to Scubaboard from a fellow Virginian, I am in Loudoun County up north.

I'd be willing to donate. Was lucky enough to get a few dives in during the limited period they were open, this would be really nice to have and would stop a lot of Northern Virginians from having to drive down to Lake Phoenix I believe.

Welcome from another Northern Virginian! I'm 5'7", the 7' feels good to me, I cant imagine a 5' being long enough for someone your height, at least not for comfortable stowing in the waistband... I use a 7' on doubles, on my single tank reg set I use the 40" under the arm as pictured above.

Only real shop in Nags Head area is Roanoke Island Outfitters. Not sure if they're doing charters that early in the season but they generally do have guided shore dives as well, theres a few wrecks in the Kill Devil Hills area you can swim out to, just not sure again if they'd be doing them...

Thanks for the writeup - always good to see what options are out there!

It's fiction - kind of a submarine/heist combo, but I remember it being a pretty good flick.

He gave me some advice when I first started diving NC, great guy and great contributor. RIP.

Let me know how they work out - I'm a similar size (8.5/9) with neoprene sock on drysuit and was considering the 10.
