    Strobe Recommendation for Canon G11?

    Hi Laurie! Just now found this post. I'm also in Tucson and looking to get into the photography thing too, to remember some of the dives I've been on! Also just got a gently used Canon (G10) on here with it's housing, and everything for an Inon strobe, BUT the strobe! Curious as to how yours...

    Scuba geocache

    Dunno about all that, but I'd be willing to give it a try! Never dove there. What about Lake Mohave? Do you think there is some there too? I'm trying to tag along with my LDS and their upcoming trip there too. Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated! :beerchug: Paul

    Catalina Island death info?

    I knew you weren't an M.D., but thought since you hail from the area where the accident occurred, maybe you might have heard more info, that's all. I didn't think about the boat not even going TO Catalina, and not having dived there (yet!!), not awfully familiar with the rest of the...

    Catalina Island death info?

    Thanks Ken for posting up good info here. I apologize for making a premature jump to the DCS, the only other info I had heard was that he had frothy material from his mouth and his eyes were protruding. Having only a few dives myself (roughly the same 35), and reading some of the stories in...

    Catalina Island death info?

    Has anybody heard anything about the death of a diver at Catalina this past weekend? A friend at work's son finished his OW cert and on the boat someone died, I presume of DCS. Unfortunately, not a lot of info forthcoming from friend's son. Wondering if anyone on here had heard any more? Dr...

    Smoking weed on liveaboard

    Just keep it away from me. If I find out that someone on board has some, and intends to use it and the boat owner won't prevent it, I'd probably cancel or look for another boat. Some of us HAVE to "get hung up on the legalities". I have a security clearance, and I really like my job. I'll...

    Setting myself up for ridicule

    "Could have", but didn't. Accept that you made the mistake, and have learned from it, and move on. AND, teach others what you have learned. I'll bet you NEVER make that mistake again!! :D

    Anacapa dive on the Peace 4-17

    Setting myself up for ridicule

    Wow!! Always pay attention to your inner voice!! That has kept me out of trouble so much over the years! And ignoring it has gotten me into so much trouble!! QFT! I'm a chicken-$h!t diver, a real scaredy cat! ALWAYS checking and double-checking my console, air, depth, etc. Am definitely...

    Not good ear question

    Trying chewing gum, or swallowing large gulps of water. Sometimes that helps. Also, your ears may clear in the plane going there too. Whatever you do, don't force it! Over-pressurizing your ear, especially before travel can really mess it up badly, maybe permanently! :shocked2: I know...

    Nanaimo Divers

    I did a dive with Ian's group at Ocean Explorers, dove on the Saskatchewan (in December!!) Good outfit I thought, good people there! Only, didn't get my dive shirt that time. :(
