    Underwear Revisited - The Warmest

    Remember that you lose 25% of your body heat through your head. About 1/2 of that through your face. Perhaps you need a better hood??

    PLB/EPIRB (Pers. Locating Beacon)

    The newest generation of EPIRBS transmits GPS coordinates to satellites. They also transmit a local (short range) locator signal on a well know frequency. No body listens for this frequency any more, its range is too short if you want to have good battery life, they just wait for the satellite...

    Threading SK7 Compass mount

    I had the spring pins on a dive computer (specially made for diving) come loose and almost lost the computer. They can work loose if put under tension and wobbled.

    Threading SK7 Compass mount

    I use two seperately tied loops, this way if one breaks or comes undone, the other one holds the compass to my wrist. I twist the two together once to make it easier to get on. I also have a Suunto Vitec in a boot connected this way. I have lost a couple of (thankfully cheap) watches and a...

    A little advice on the leave college idea.

    I have never seen a cheap sailboat that you could charter on. Heck I've never seen a cheap sailboat that I could/would spend the night on. Cheap and sailboat are an oxymoron. I have been sailing since about I was about 8 and was always taught that a boat is a hole in the water that you try to...

    Have training standards "slipped"?

    Well, I for one, doubt that training standards have slipped that much. I was (first) trained in 1968-1969, and the standards, for my class, were pretty low. The other divers I dove with had similar training. The class was 3 evenings and two shallow beach dives. First evening was all classroom...

Since there is no standard here, I always communicate my intention to shoot a bag before hand. If i don't communicate and do shoot a bag people...
