Bats? Is that what they are! Bats! Flying out of my ceiling yes. I see them now! Thousands of them. I must adjust my NITROS mix. Or was it NITROX? I keep mixing up the tanks.

"Yes, that's it, he died of his excesses." Or did he die of his excuses? "To be the Buddha you must kill the Buddha"

I'm not a dentist but I would avoid using them during diving. Why risk losing them or other complications.

Underwater communication is just that communication. A sign from one diver, unless it is a dire emergency signal like an out of air, often elicits a question from the other. What you described is a perfect example of underwater communication. He signaled he wanted to go up or asked you if you...

Just Kidding. I felt like I needed to say something irreverent.

What took him so long?

Cool my post was automatically censured! I feel like Chris Rock. You ******** can ***** my ***

The very newest Sony Cameras will only take Sony batteries. The *******s! I think two batteries are not enough. I want one charging, One Shooting, and one back up.

Buy extra batteries for the camera. Get the largest and most powerful you can find. Make sure they are all fully charged when you are going off the grid. Make sure the camera is powered down when not using it. I pull the battery to prevent accidental start ups. Don’t use the flip out screen...

I own black and translucent skirted masks. I use the black for photography. Ones that allow light are very distracting and can flare certain kinds of cameras. I think the clear are a little less claustrophobic just allowing a brighter view of the world.

Use your repent and mosquito nets at night. Light weight long sleeve shirts and pants are great to bring along. Get ready to throw ‘em on at sunset if you start seeing mosquitoes. I caught Malaria in Zimbabwe and it sucks; the Malaria that is not Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe was very nice. CDC is the...

Believe it or not most of the holes were drilled below the water line and most the drilling took place from inside the boat. The man inside locates the position of the hole and starts drilling. The diver on the outside camps out where he thinks the hole will appear. The diver has the thru...

Can you explain to me what you are doing? Attatching what to what and why?

I used to do a lot of boat repairs in the water. I’d install through hulls, trim tabs, and swim steps. I ran pneumatic tools off of scuba tanks with a long line and they worked great! I used drills primarily and they lasted a long time. I want to say 20 minutes of full drilling. I always had...

I long every dive and love it. I could care less whether I am ever asked for it. It is fun to look back and remember fun dives and people you dove with or if you want to revisit sites. “Was that lava tube on Kona or Kauai?” My logs have in and out pressures, weights, suit, people I dove...

With regards to whether these standards are very high? SSI will probably invest at least $100,000 in this project so it makes sense for them to record it on the best quality they can. They need the high quality because once it goes through the editing a dubbing process the lower end material...

I think SSI wants raw footage. Not editted program.

Shooting underwater video is probably a fun way to make extra cash. You don’t have the responsibility of the Dive Master watching out for the tourists. To be successful at it you’d need to be at a pretty cool dive site. I bought the video of the Rhone and the Kona Manta dives. Well worth it...

I like leaving my fins and mask on and my regulator in. I back into the surf sort of side ways keeping and eye on the surf. As soon as I’m deep enough I drop forward into the water, ride the rip of the last wave out and swim like hell. The last beach exit I did I left one fin on and it seemed...

The Osprey Hotel on Grand Turk is located next to great dive shops and great wall dives.
