    Liveaboard choice: Turks and Caicos or St. Kitts & Saba?

    Because of the boat or the diving or both?

    Liveaboard choice: Turks and Caicos or St. Kitts & Saba?

    Going for a trip in January and trying to decide between these two. Both are Explorer boats, same # of days, similar travel convenience, etc. Saba/St. Kitts is cheaper, so I'm leaning that way, but would pay more for the diving if it's better in T&C. Never been to either, but have done numerous...

    New Perdix 2 owner - setup questions

    I didn't complain, I just asked if I it were possible to configure the computer to my liking. Sounds like the answer is no, and I'm perfectly fine with that. For the record, my purpose for owning an advanced computer like the Perdix is to have 1) a computer I can grow into as I progress, 2) a...

    New Perdix 2 owner - setup questions

    It does not. The unit came in 3GasNx by default, and that's how I originally had it configured, and it showed all those extra screens. I switched it to Nitrox and it didn't change the availability of those screens - they're all still there. Just for kicks I tried it on Air and same thing...

    New Perdix 2 owner - setup questions

    OK, thanks. Bummer. I don't need it by any means, just figured it'd be a nice to have thing. Not sure I understand the "sit out" question - my partner has her own AI-computer and spg.

    New Perdix 2 owner - setup questions

    For reference, here's the main screen as I have it setup, and here's the setup screen showing I'm not in tec mode, but rather in nitrox mode.

    New Perdix 2 owner - setup questions

    Hrm, I don't think so, unless I'm mis-reading the manual. I believe I have it set to Nitrox mode. This is a Perdix 2 (if that matters) and I'm going by the recreational version of their manual. The default mode is "3 Gas Nx" but I changed that to Nitrox as recommended by the manual. The main...

    New Perdix 2 owner - setup questions

    I did, and I agree, it's excellent. I read it cover to cover, but it didn't say anything about whether the info screens could be suppressed.

    Hrm, I don't think so, unless I'm mis-reading the manual. I believe I have it set to Nitrox mode. This is a Perdix 2 (if that matters) and I'm going by the recreational version of their manual here (https://www.shearwater.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Perdix-2_RECREATIONAL_Manual_RevC.pdf).

    New Perdix 2 owner - setup questions

    Hi folks- Santa brought a Perdix 2 and so far I love it (haven't dived with it yet though). I'm a typical recreational diver, so at least for now I have no use for some of the info screens on the bottom row - things like GF99, Tissues, Delta+5, etc. Is there any way to hide these screens when...

    Light setup and general questions about Divevolk

    Thanks - so sounds like the macro lens is worth it. When would you typically need to stack the macro with a red filter since you have the flood light?

    Light setup and general questions about Divevolk

    Hi there- I'm looking at getting a Divevolk housing for my iPhone 13. My primary use case is just snapping photos and some videos on recreational dives to share on social media. In the past I've used a very simple setup with a Gopro Hero7 Black (shooting just video) with a single Sola 1200 (in...

    Question Recommendations for Keys diving, father-daughter trip

    My daughter (19) and I are looking at a trip to the Keys over the holiday break, but neither of us have ever been diving in FL. I've got ~300 dives, she has ~20 (most of hers were on a trip to Cozumel last year). We're in Colorado, and non-stop flights to Miami are cheap, so figured we'd give...

    Question Advice for group of new divers - seeking convenience

    Looking at Cozumel for the week after Christmas with a group of mostly new OW divers (two are brand new, two have a few dozen dives, etc.). I've been to Cozumel many times (last time was probably 5 years ago) and always stayed in non-dive hotels/condos (to accommodate my non-diving family) and...

    Accommodations advice, party of 5 divers, 4/5 new OW, Delfins?

    Looking at Bonaire for a March week-long trip. 3 parents and 2 older teenagers. My teen is brand new to diving - just got her cert last year and only has her 4 checkout dives so far. The other 2 parents + their teen are almost as green with maybe 10-20 dives each. I've been to Bonaire once...
