Bought my maximus last year, and I need to get it in for the annual inspection/service. Who/What shop/outfit is recommended. Looking for quick turnaround.
Thanks.
Just got back last week from Phuket area. There are about 10 (destination) day trips available from Phuket area. A couple of overnight trips available (mostly p-p island), and of course the live aboards to the Similans. Probably the best day trip from Phuket is the King Cruiser, Shark point...
Just got back from my trip. As far as photos go...well let's just say I won't quit my day job for u/w photo career....lol. Problems that I had were:
1) Auto mode doesn't mean good pictures.
2) White sand w/strobe on auto=a lot of pictures of a snow blizzard.
3) None of macro stuff turned...
Just got back to the states yesterday from our trip. We had a great trip!! Black Manta experience was great. Crew and Dive Guides were great. Did not get to see any Whale Sharks, but did get to see a Manta off of Koh Bon. Food was awesome and all divers seemed to have a good time. No...
I got certified in Palau (nothing like doing it right) by Sam's in '06. The times we dove Blue corner, the current was mild. We did Ulong channel and that was a blast. The guides were great. Things happened as they briefed it, so no surprises if you pay attention. I hope you get to do Palau...
When I got certified in Palau, I met a lot of folks who were either coming from or going to Yap for the mantas. I think that was because of Cont. airlines route.
Emorrow, thanks for the report, I've been anxiously awaiting it. Too bad no whale sharks made an appearance. I guess it is all about right place at the right time. I'm currently gearing up for the trip. I can't wait. Trip of a lifetime for my brother and myself. I'm also very glad to hear...
Thanks for the info!!! Another question for you all....at what depth would the flash be needed? For example, tropical waters...let's say 75-100' vis, decent water clarity. And would that change as the sunlight changes. For example maybe no flash at noon....but at 3 pm....now maybe a flash?
Hey guys thanks for the info. Lot's of good wisdom (as opposed to bad wisdom). I'll be going w/my brother who has been my dive buddy for the majority of our dives (got certified together). I'll be watching him the majority of the time as he's got a pretty good set up (camera) and has done...
Hi all. I'm going on a dive trip next month to a destination I will most likely never visit again. So I bought the little reefmaster w/wide angle and strobe to take some photos of this once in a life time trip. This will be my first time doing u/w photography. I've read some and think that I...
Ice machine for cooling beers? Do I need to bring some beer on board? Has anyone heard how the diving is in the Similans? Getting closer to my trip, can't wait!!
emorrow and coalfox....I am envious....can't wait until it's my turn to go. Let me know how it goes. I am especially interested if there have been any whale shark sightings in the similians.
Have a great time!!!
Hi all!! I'm going to buy a Sealife reefmaster mini for an upcoming trip. My question is this.....what accessories are necessities and what accesories can I do without? This will be my first u/w camera purchase and I'm looking for some help.
Thanks to all.
I rinse X2 day. However, I have done it as much X4 when feeling really lousy. I was dong okay for awhile, but I'm feeling the pressure again in my head.
Got the phone call from my doc, in his words: Your sinuses are in a bad way. Going to see ENT after x-mas. News not good....major sinus problems (chronic sinusitus). I'll keep using the saltwater as it does provide some relief.
