And it seems that if you are a DM or instructor and work in divingbusiness on a 6 day working day that the biggest chance of getting bent is after your day off. So then it is again the same as the first day. I always do on holiday 4 dives a day. Of course there is some personal difference, but...

I am from Europe and find it important to know how many dives are done during a trip. This is because I want to calculate if the price is fair or not. I don't mind if there is no guide for me, I am like most European divers used to dive without a guide. All divers have a cert that allows you to...

And then you only get maximum of 18 dives. Not more. I had such a discussion 2 years ago for South Africa. They had a programm with unlimited diving. So 2 dives in the morning and then, weather depending 2 in the afternoon. I asked if they then really offer 4 dives a day, even if I am the only...

I don't think it is only the safety of the boats. It is also that Egypt is not far from Israel with their problems. I know from people who are afraid to go to Egypt now. And just 5 minutes ago, a planned trip from our diveclub has been cancelled due to what happened with Iran today. A problem I...

Do they give you 4 full tanks so you don't need to get back after the first dive and the second dive etc? I do 4 dives a day on Bonaire and don't want to spent time waiting for fills or driving back and then go again.

Your screenshot seems to be broken atdotde, but that distribution of time is for some divers under water already difficult. But as I said before, don't panic if you forgot it at 1 depth, add it to the next shallower depth and probably you will be fine too. I had 1 time that I used 1...

Ratio deco was used by at least 1 agency less than 15 years ago. You had to do 'deco by head/on the fly'. Oh yes, ratio deco was a great tool. But not how it was used then. I still use ratio deco, but then if I dive with someone else that made a diveplan. If that person tells me the bottomtime...

I will add a 9th :D But what I want to say is that on every level there are courses invented that are not required. And you don't know where a diver ends or want to go. I already knew during my open water course that technical diving would be my thing. And when I asked the same question about...

training are things that can also be done without instructor. It is excersizing. I have learned myself drysuit diving, it is no rocketscience. First dive to 17.5m as it felt ok. Next dive was a night dive. It is some physics and feeling or talent of the diver. But if you are unsure, yes, please...

I never took a course that did not bring me deeper or further. This means that AOW is a good choice to not have discussions if you go to 30m depth, you can have a nightdive in it and rest is optional. Then maybe deepdiver to 40m. And nitrox. AOW and nitrox are the first things I would do...

No, it is AOW OR proof of 40 logged deep dives. As you know that every open water diver can and is allowed to dive deeper than 18 or 20m, this means that the open water diver must have done at least 40 dives to 18.1m and have written this in their liebooks. Or you must have an aow cert. And with...

So after 9 dives you can have your advanced cert and then take a camera. It is better than nothing, but it would have been better at least 500 dives before taking a camera. That instructors are not allowed to take a camera is a little bit strange. In the open water course I can understand, but...

New ones 3 minutes ago. :(

Not only in the Red Sea. Last week I saw a picture on facebook of not certified/too old life rafts on a liveaboard in the Maldives. Now is 3 years out of date in this case most times no problem. But as a customer, you can or must expect that these things are ok. At the moment I won't do a lob...

Does it run on the old LR/PS 6 version? And if you buy a new pc or laptop, can you reuse one of the 2 accounts?

Don't have nauticam wet lenses. Have from AOI a +15 and from Saga a +10. But the CMC seems to work, but haven't tried.

I use Isotta for my Olympus.

And does this work to over 300ft? For me 100ft is not enough, I dive over 160 quite regularly.

I know them, but they don't work for dome ports and also they don't work if you also use a flipadapter which is screwed already around the macroport. So no option. And my macro set has the same weight as the wide angle set, so it is impossible to add more lift without changing the arm length...

My floating arms are now just completely perfect. I don't want to change that. Also when travelling by plane, there is absolutely no room anymore in my luggage for another float. More lift changes also the length. I have had since 2019 3 Z330 and all have had problems. I use them a lot (170...
