Thanks for all your efforts!

I just used CVS and DOH for a COVID PCR test for an international flight requirement. CVS results were back in about 24 hours. DOH (using LabCorp) got to me about 6 hours after my flight landed! Definitely recommend CVS! Just know that you have to make an appointment about two weeks out to...

Same here, no notifications. I checked my settings are they are all still the same as before.

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for explaining it so clearly.

That is a really good idea. That way you can get a 'true' average for the main bottom portion of the dive. I know looking at the graph my SAC rate is very high on the descent as I add air to my wing (Shearwater's SAC rate ignores the first 30 secs of a dive for just this reason, but most...

Right now I can't see a noticeable difference, some are slightly higher, some are slightly lower, but I haven't had my Perdix that long, so probably need to do some more dives to get a true comparison. Also my deco is usually 15 minutes or less. I imagine on much longer hangs any difference will...

I was just wondering this same thing about my SAC rate when it came to switching to a deco gas without a transmitter. Comparing my deco dives to my non deco dives the SAC rate is very similar, making me think that somehow the Perdix does compensate for when you change gas, but I'm not sure how?

Hudson Grotto, Florida. Viz was AWFUL! This site is usually dark and very tannic. But today was something else. I couldn't see my fins while standing in the water. Silt everywhere. Uncomfortably warm (86' freshwater just feels wrong). It was ugh! Also, (I found out at 100') they have removed...

Today I found a black nylon case with wetnotes and a pencil at the bottom of Hudson Grotto. It was at about 100' deep, about 30' from the 100' platform. It looked in good condition like it had been dropped pretty recently. It was a really nice looking case. I gave it to the staff at Scuba West...

I'm taking Cavern / Intro to Cave in October / November. Same as you I will also be looking to do lots of entry level cave dives once I get certified. I'm also AN/DP and interested in diving the South Florida area Wrecks (the Hydro Atlantic is #1 on my wish list!). PM me if you want to plan...

Dayo Scuba in North Orlando is excellent. They have serviced my regs for years with no issues. Only caveat, right now there is a huge backorder on service parts because of all the supply chain issues with COVID etc. I have been waiting almost two months for my Oceanic Service Kits to come in. I...

My wife (who also dives) has always being very supportive of me solo diving (she understands I don't really have anyone who can dive with me on my schedule, and who is willing to dive a lot of the random lakes and springs that I go to!). However recently she said that I needed to do a better job...

That is so cool! I''ve never seen frogs while diving. What an awesome (and different) experience. Great video!

How were your dives on the Lady Luck with SFDH? I'm diving with them next Tuesday. Doing the Hydro Atlantic in the morning and then the Lady Luck in the afternoon.

I'm diving Double HP 120s (equivalent to about double 15Ls) with just one ALU 40 (5.5L) deco bottle. I currently use a 35lbs (16 kg) Hog Donut Wing (diving wet). It is completely maxed out at depth at the beginning of the dive. It works, but it isn't comfortable. Plus I won't be able to add...

Did you try the 54lbs, or was that enough to put you off those wings?

Dived the USCG Duane today with Horizon Divers (Solo friendly charter / shop). They are great and I highly recommend them. They were very helpful and just let me do my thing. They just asked my runtime so they knew when to expect me back. Beautiful dive with great Viz. Current was strong but...

That sounds like a satisfying dive! I love sightseeing, but there is something about planning a search for something and then finding it underwater that feels really good!!

So I was just turned down for Solo diving with Captain Hooks Dive Center in Big Pine Key. I explained I had the SDI Solo cert and all the required equipment, but it was still a no. They were also not able to accommodate doubles on their boat either. Their reasoning was that they thought the...
