Ha ha ha!!! This was a fun read. Popeye, are these anonymous dive buddies in disguise, in the witness protection program, what??? Anyway, I guess I lack sophistication in this area. It hadn't previously occurred to me to check profiles, but you can believe I clicked on a bunch of them as I...

Wow, your trip sounds exciting!!! Aloha from Hawaii!

Option 1 will give you a chance to get used to some things and overcome your fears in a very controlled situation - a pool! And you won't be using up vacation time to get this part done. mierin, everyone's always worried about the mask skills. Have you ever dived down under water without...

I salute you, goofball!!

I'm sorry, but I've been seeing questions about THE TEST all over this board! For goodness sakes, (and for yours!), JUST READ THE BOOK! By the time you actually take a test, you should have ample information. Make good use of your study materials (book and video), your classmates, and your...

Hi there! Welcome to the Scuba Board - I look forward to hearing all about your certification! Aloha!

Aloha, I'm sure you'll find a great shop to take you diving in Maui, but I just wanted to say, YES!! Do complete your certification class in Maui. By doing your confined water and academic sessions at home before you come, you will have completed the major portions of your class already...

Hey Kettle, Congratulations on your class - you're about to expand your world in a huge way. And what a great way to kick off your diving experiences with an exotic vacation. Enjoy! You'll have to tell us all about it. Don't worry about the tests. By the time you take them, you'll know...

Congratulations on your certification! When will you get to go diving again? And....12 degrees?? "We're not worthy!!" Aloha!

Yeah, what Willer said! I don't know of anyone who hires divemasters anymore - maybe a snorkel boat, but that's not what you did all that hard work for, is it? Anyway, congratulations - the DM certification is quite an accomplishment! Get all the experience you can in the meantime, even if...

Welcome Tony! I'm still new to the board too and enjoying every minute of it... Where do you get to go diving?

Ha ha ha! You all are too much fun! And yes cherry and ladycute, you both know me! Looks like the water here is flatening out - maybe we can finally dive again tomorrow...Well, off I go to nose around in other people's "threads"!

Great, sharp shots!!!

This is too cool - Frogfish are the best- I wish I could show you my underwater sign for frogfish...We see these on most dives here in Hawaii...I'll attach a photo too!

Well, today I look out my window and see...wind, rain, and high surf - another day of cancelled diving here on Maui - waaaahhhh! Maybe now's the time to write up the high surf, whipping wind, murky water specialty! The weird thing is that after a few days of bad weather (very rare here), I...

Hi there! Just wanted to put my 2 cents in on the digitals...I have a canon powershot A40 with a housing. This camera and housing combo was inexpensive (as cameras and housings go) and though it's only a 2 megapixel camera, I've gotten some phenominal photos AND have enlarged them up to 16x20...

Aloha from Hawaii! I'm new to the scuba board and just thought I'd introduce myself. I teach scuba here in Hawaii, but due to high surf and wind conditions, I've been dry for a week now - unheard of! So, a friend told me about the scubaboard, and I have been glued to the screen for about two...
