    Gear on Cruise

    I take my dive gear and my camera gear too and my wife hates to have all that stuff in a small cabin so I keep it as orderly as humanly possible. Under the bed is a good spot. I also pack little of anything else so my two bags are equal to her two bags :) To me it is not a big deal since we...

    I'm a Diveheart Volunteer: What's your Super Power???

    Well said Pete! I couldn't be more honored to be part of this last Sunday. As I said in FB #not a fair trade to help them be free for a few minutes which in turn gave me a lifetime of gratitude for what I have been given and appreciation for how little it takes to make someone else happy...

    Atomic Cobalt computer and DCS

    The dive computer gives you information based on whatever model it is using to calculate your NDL, it also gives you depth and time at depth info. I'm a proponent of divers making decisions based on that information rather than "following" or "riding" the computer which is very common. To...

    Atomic Cobalt computer and DCS

    Hello eward4! I'm a proponent of using a computer purely for information and making your decisions based on what you know. For example, You know that your cobalt is more liberal than other computers and you want to dive a little more conservatively, so instead of selling the computer, when you...

    Shark ID Please

    The color, shape of the head and length of the tail are not typical of a thresher shark. It's hard to tell what type of shark it is from that picture, but I can tell it is not a thresher shark.

    RCCL Cruise dive excursions

    That's what I tell people who say they don't need to dive, "Because they have snorkeled!" I also tell them they are window shopping, the real fun is inside the store. I'm teaching my wife and kids (15 and 10) so they can dive with me in October during our next cruise... What an exercise in...

    Ditching the Splits: What now?

    I dive with Hollis F1s and they are also long and negative. The pocket fit my foot better than the jets, but they are as heavy and as negative as the jets. Like you, my feet and my legs are the most negative part of my body and without bending my knees my feet will most likely take me out of...

    Trip Report 8/2-8/9 w/ Lots of Pics!

    Nice pics... I love the jawfish and the eyes on the 3rd puffer. Bonaire was the first place I have ever been able to dive with a school of bonefish. Thanks for sharing!

    Jupiter water tmps right now?

    There have been ripping currents all along the coast recently, so the viz should improve shortly. Also, there are pockets of cold water around, specially below 80-90'. I had 70 degrees at 104' last Saturday in WPB, but most of the dive the water was 82 degrees and air temperatures have been in...

    RCCL Cruise dive excursions

    Advertising a Turneffe Atoll dive is like saying we will drop you by the coast. The Atoll is 30 miles long! I wouldn't dive Belize again from a cruise ship unless I was guaranteed a dive in the Blue Hole which is not going to happen because of the distance. Don't get me wrong the diving from the...

    New Scuba Set Up

    My first computer was a Cobra & my first BCD was a Balance. Sounds like you're buying from an Aqualung shop just like me when I was first certified. I added a second cam band to the Balance because the single cam band did not secure heavier steel tanks well IMO. It could have been technique at...

    Key Largo dive shops (Other than Conch Republic)

    Capt. Slate and Florida Keys Dive Center are across the street from Conch Rep. in Tavernier. Up in Key Largo you have Rainbow Reef, Horizon Divers, Ocean Divers, Quiescense & Silent World and many others. I've only listed ops I have used in the past and have had decent experiences. YMMV

    Petrel v. Vyper :)

    Thanks for the link! I would have love to see the repetitive dives extended out to 60 minutes, but quite interesting still. Good stuff there.

    First time I saw the post was today with the price increase. I already have 130s, but I'm always looking for extras at the right price.
