    Kakaako Shore dive

    Who has done a shore dive from Kakaako park? What can you tell me about the conditions? Entry? Exit? Depth? Boating traffic? I've never done it but I'm considering it depending on what y'all have to say about it. This is just a "get wet and test gear" type dive but I need to know what...

    Anybody missing gear?

    I just saw this on Craig's list. The fact that the tanks were called "oxygen tanks" red flags this post for me. Scuba Diving Gear

    Valve replacement for alum 80

    So, I've had this tank since 1989. It is getting harder to turn the air on and off (sticking). I read somewhere on SB about needing to overhaul it once a year. Nothing has ever been done to mine, outside of hydro's and VIPs (both are due in August) My dive shop tells me that it is $48...

    The Trench 7/27

    Crab Lover and I hit this site on Sunday. It was an okay dive but we saw two unusual things, one identified and one just weird. We saw a lion's paw (or head - I can't remember which) sea cucumber. It was really going to town with it's Medusa head end. Too bad we forgot the camera could...

    Firehouse 7/12 & 7/13

    I have a friend visiting, so of course it didn't go as planned. Before we left the house on Saturday, he says to me "Beck, will there be a current?". I said, "Oh no, there is never a current this time of year". Guess what? Yep, current. It was mild but enough to sweep me off course a bit...

    Another First for me & dive buddy

    Crab Lover and I hit Firehouse today. I hope she posts pictures. She found two Harlequin Shrimp in a little puka. Neither of us has ever seen these on a dive before. She saw them at the aquarium and knew what to expect. I, however, thought they would be larger. They are so cute...

    Feel like loaning out a bp/w?

    Hi everyone! My friend is coming from Seattle in July (he will be here for 9 days) and with the luggage thing would like to pack light. We could rent a BC and will if no one wants to lend us a bp/w. He is an XL guy. So if any of you are so inclined and have a spare laying around...

    Cataract surgery

    So, I'm having a cataract removed on Monday. (unusual for my age, I know) I was just reading the paperwork and it said I could resume diving FOUR WEEKS after surgery. Has anyone had this done? Did you wait the full 4 weeks?

    Kidspot comes through, big time!

    Well, two great dives hosted by kidspot! These were my first scooter dives. It took awhile to get used to it but what fun after you do! (Kind of additcting, really) Anyway, the first dive we left from Mala boat ramp, but went out to "the Pipe". Wow. The coral reef is soooo much more...

    Some storm, huh?

    How did everyone fare? Oahu hit hard. How about the other islands? Someone told me more to come. I need some sleep . . . .

    Any interest?

    I'm just putting feelers out right now. I don't even know if I can get a boat to do this dive I've always wanted to do. I've always wanted to get in the water on New Year's Eve and come out on New Year's Day. This would entail getting a captain to agree to go out that late. Before I call...

    My first!

    I (finally) saw my first monk seal! I was within 10' of him. It was awesome. (I did not harrass/approach him). I did do some barrell rolls to see if I could entice him to come to me, though. He seemed very cool with divers. He did have a tag, but I couldn't read it from my vantage point...

    Strange Diving Style

    I saw something quite strange on Sunday. I was at E-Beach and there were two groups of three like this: One guy (instructor?) was holding onto the valves of two people in scuba rigs. The two "divers" were face down at the surface. The "instructors" were pulling them into deeper water. The...

    Monk Seal Hauled out for Nap at 3 Tables today

    We were diving at Firehouse and some folks walked down to say that a Monk Seal was napping on the beach at Three Tables. We used our surface interval to walk down and take a look. I just had my cell phone so the photo appears to be of a rock on the beach (they had it cordoned off). But it...

    Does anyone know if he is still around? I've been calling for the past month and have left messages but I haven't heard from him. Who else services Atomic on Oahu?

    O'Hana T-shirts?

    I was reading the Kelp divers SB T-shirt thread and wondered if we had an interest in doing something like that for the O'Hana. We have a wonderful artist in Justleesa. (I'm not volunteering you, L, just stating a fact that may prove to benefit us ;) ) So, what would you pay for a...
