Jax I don't know what I was doing wrong, probably just a positioning issue, yes I bought the Urobond adhesive it seemed quite tacky as soon as I started to apply it, so I don't think I wasn't letting it dry enough. Hi Karen - already planning the return trip. Sadly it will still only be...

I was in Mexico for the first time late last year and listened to a very detailed conversation about the benefits of a P-valve and the she-p. I don't do long dives or even dive that much anymore so you might wonder why I need one, I don't like to dive in places where there are no facilities and...

I had my first trip to Mexico in December and did 4 days cavern diving with ZG, as it was during the GUE conference they organised a Canadian Cave 2 diver as my guide. I had such a great time I am going back around Sept. :)

I guess if I went in to a Canadian store they wouldn't like sterling :) The hotel I went to has a lot of Canadian guests and they take $Can and the hotel will exchange into pesos.

I did my first cavern dives last December, but I don't know anything about Angelita - where is it and how does it compare to my favourite dives in Grand Cenote and Dos Ojos.

Having recently returned from my first visit, thank you for posting.

:no: Be careful what you say about them. I made a similar comment on their facebook page and must have been reported as I found I couldn't comment on future posts. So they must have taken their ball in. :D I love my DUI but I agree the new overlays are not what I would wear.

I went on Sea Spirit a few years ago, had a cracking 12 day trip. A couple of my friends are going soon only wish I was going to.

Opps yes sorry I looked at the upload dates and not the date across the board. :eek: he looked 40+ in the photos he must look pretty bad now.

Question if he has been off the radar for 10 years when were the photos in post 1 taken and by whom ?

I can't see where the light is located on to the diver, so can't comment on that particular make. From the GUE website a primary light is defined as "One primary light: A primary light should be minimalist in design; its power source should consist of a rechargeable battery pack residing in a...

These guys C & C Marine at Largs do equipment hire and boat trips, I dived with them some years ago, the Clyde wrecks can be pretty dark. :) Don't write Oban off for a weekend, 2 hours isn't that far and can certainly be done either for a day or weekend.

Blimey that is equivalent to 8 x 1 pint donations a year, how often can you donate in the US as that is far more than here in the UK as donations should be 16 weeks apart.

I have done a few redsea liveaboards and in all honesty they are pretty much alike. Sea Serpent Fleet and Tornado are both good operators which I have booked through Tony Backhurst and I have just been on a BlueOTwo boat, Blue Horizon which was very comfortable and had an excellent ladder, it...

Don't be afraid to ask for assistance. I had a double knee replacements last May and got in the water again around September with a lot of assistance from friends. In December I went on a live aboard and informed the company before hand the crew were great I kitted up once in th zodiac. As...

I am guessing that since most people book through an agent which are clearly listed on the agents page, they don't need a specific email address. I have been on both Royal Emporer and Hurricane, Tornado run a fine operation.

Or once you have some basic diving experience you will rarely check your spg, I was taught to be aware of my gas consumption way before I changed configuration - that comes from experience :)

My LDS Divelife here in the UK stocks them, don't know how much of a gimmick they are or if there are better solutions around. I know Brett would be happy to post you one but I have no idea if the cost of shipping would be worth it. They are on the seemannsub website and are available in...

We went on Deep Blue in October 2007 the time of year was great we had 32 whale shark sightings in 6 dives. You won't be able to do such a short trip and get up to Wolf and Darwin as this is where all the action is, Galapagos is an expensive and long trip from the UK and I wouldn't bother...

I did this route in June 2007 I don't recall seeing hammerheads on Deadalus, I was there again last month and we did see them :) Just proves you just never know and last month we had flat calm conditions at the Brothers something I had never experienced before ;)
