    Last Sunday, Aug 26, the vis was not great at Vista Point as already stated. Above 40ft it was 3-5, but below 40 couldn't differenciate brown water from brown bottom. The solution was to stay above 40 ft. The temp was 85-87, so there is that.

    Learning the Drysuit. How was it for you?

    Hi Tracy, I never ever put my drysuit in the pool...but that is my personal preference. Don't want to risk any chlorine damage. First drysuit experience was terrible, but not really the diving part, that part just felt a bit weird but no real issues. The choking sensation out of the water...

Then there is the...

    First time to dive Mexico Caves

    Hi Tammy, If you are diving wet in a 5mm, you might not need any weight with AL80's. I don't. When I am diving dry, which is the case these days, I just use a 4 or 5lb tail weight. I dove a 3mm with a 3mm hooded vest for quite a few years and was fine. A 5mm with a vest will be fine, I...

    Dove the Lake today, Vista Point. Vis was really, really good at about a stong 20ft. We did an 85 minute dive which says a lot for the vis and not getting bored with the "brown". Temp was 53 degrees most of the dive. Underwater trees were cool and so were the carp that were feeding and...
