    Andrea Doria expeditions, July 2019, off of the "Ol Salty II"

    Compilation of two trips to the Andrea Doria in July 2019. First trip was John Chatterton's charter, second was an open boat. On both trips we enjoyed near perfect weather. Plenty of wildlife abounded with finback whales, sunfish, blue sharks, great white shark, and the mates and guests caught...

    Is Andrea Doria worth it?

    Good question. I am a very new comer and dived it for the first time in 2011, then returned last year on two trips aboard the "Ol Salty II", a veteran captain and vessel that had been there several times over many years past. I am headed back there again this summer on two more trips. There are...

    Reef Safe Biodegradable Dive Mask Defogger and Cleanser

    I used the Reef Safe defogger on my last cave dive trip to Florida, and it works very well, better than anything I have tried. After years, I finally ended up using baby shampoo, but it had it's pitfalls, of a soapy taste in mouth, plus does not work as well as this Reef Safe defogger! Looking...

    If you could only buy one lens, which one?

    You made your choice already, but I concur. I use a Sigma 15mm fisheye and have the Nikkor 16-35mm. I shoot with the D800 and now the new D850. Both are excellent lenses, perfect for UW capture.

    Backscatter vs Nauticam Vacuum system

    I have the Backscatter vacuum system for both my Nauticam D800 and D850 housings. Never an issue, and they both have been 275' deep with no problems. I can't speak for the Nauticam vacuum system, never used it.

    Article: WRECK DIVING: HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

    I'm old school too Jim, but I've never learned to breathe from a tank valve! I browsed the article, and didn't find it pushing one brand or another. I read deck plans when I can find them, but I'll run a reel otherwise if penetrating any distance. One thing that wreck divers should try and do...

    Upgrading a DS125 to a 160?

    I just bought two new 160's with the Li-Ion battery packs, quite an upgrade from my old SS 200's. They are much smaller and lighter and more neutral in the water than the 200's, with less drag in current. The new LED focusing light is great as well, and I love that it squelches during exposure...
