Have you been on this wreck before? We dove it last August and it's a good wreck. What charter boat are you guys diving? We used Atlantis Dive charters from New London, and are gonna use them again. Last year we didn't swim through, just barely penetrated the blast holes to look around. This...

You guys that have gone through the u-853 do you suggest going bow to stern or stern to bow? Bow meaning the blast hole just forward of the conning tower and stern meaning the blast hole, well, back at the stern. is there anything to see forward of the forward blast hole or do most guys just go...

Does anyone else have their XTX200 1st stages positioned upside down on the tanks for better hose streamlining? The LP hose ports are angled up in the normal position and seem to make the hoses stick out to the sides a little. I turned mine upside down and now the hoses seem alot more...

Can anyone tell me about these regs...Good, Bad, or indifferent? Gonna be used 90-150fsw air and nitrox. Thanks guys, bell47.

yeah, I guess I'm just one of the minnows, but I don't have to live in NJ either! Besides going to a commercial school for 20 grand to clean hulls would be stupid. There is no regulation that says you can't do it with scuba gear, just depends on what you want to do with your business. Why would...

I like suit dryer fstbttms!One reason you tend to be wet is that's a Harvey's suit with neoprene wrist seals(looks like it anyway). Scrap the neoprene wrist seals and get some viking HD rubber wrist seals put on it. I did this to my old harveys(just like yours) and it made all the difference in...

Vr technology has a deal rigt now where if you trade in your old computer you can geta VR-3 for $800 or a VRX for about 1000. Has anyone done this? can you trade in anything or does it have to be an old VR3

You have about 45 minutes at 1.6. You shouldn't have a problem with a single exposure. I also have a Suunto Vitec ds. I won't get another suunto. I finally got a VR-3 and use the suunto as a bottom timer for back up. The VR-3 is much easier to use. I know they are expensive, it stung me a...

RJP.....that's way cool.....that's why I like real shipwrecks. Actually if a ship is sunk on purpose why is it called a "wreck". It didn't wreck...it was just placed there.

Don't get me wrong, If they sunk a ship for a reef near where I live I'd go check it out, But I guess I like the history part ot it as well. It's really great reading other divers perspectives on diving!

So I was reading the post about the best shipwrecks below, and some seem like really cool dives but, the ones that were sunk on purpose don't really have any appeal to me. I don't know how to explain it but I have absolutly no desire to dive on artifical reef type ships. I'm not knocking those...

The waters where I dive are known to have large sharks in the late summer and fall. Makos and an occasional great white are here that time of year(not to mention blues, porbeagles, and threshers). What would you guys do while on a deco stop and had a large shark nearby. What if it acted...

I have the same rig and really like it. I use it for doubles(worthington 119's) and I also use it with an OMS single tank adapter using alum. 80's and LP steel 95's. Ive got probably 20 dive's with the doubles and 50 with the singles. I've got Apek single and double wings. I would get another...

I have several pair of Henderson Gold core gloves and mits left over and want to sell. 5 pair MEDIUM 3-finger mits 2 pair SMALL 3-finger mits other gold core mits and gloves too, let me know what you want. All Gold core are $30 per pair plus shipping. We are selling our own...

I was just asking a question. I'm sorry I don't have your extreme expertice on all aspects of diving mr scubafanatic but if you spent all the time that it takes to make 1413 post, underwater then you may not know every math formula either. You should get off the computer and go diving instead...

are worthington HP130's the largest tanks on the market? What is the cubic foot if pumped up to 4000psi. What would be the cubic ft of 119's(actually 123 CF) pumped to 4000psi?

I'm trying to plan a spear fishing trip to Bull shoals in North AR. Does anyone have any suggestions for dive shops, restaurants, lodging, boat rentals(preferably pontoon boats), bars, ect........ What would be the best time of year to do this trip? Winter diving is fine with us as we all...

I commercial scallop dive in the Gulf of Maine, If you think you dive in deeper, darker water than that, I think you are sadly mistaken. It can't be any colder or it would be ice, which we do dive around occasionally. We have to wear 7mm neoprene dry suits with AGA full face mask. I have had to...

I know this thread is old but do you guys still hire commercial scallop divers???
