    Aruba in May

    The Riu, Radisson and Westin are all very nice hotels. Good restaurants in the hotels and good restaurants within walking distance. I have heard a number of people state that the Westin is the nicest hotel on the island. I'm not sure I would go that far as there are some very nice hotels in...

    Aruba shallow dives

    If you're interested in shallow, easy dives, you should probably stay with the west coast dive sites. Usually, the surface does not have big waves, the dives are shallower, and usually, there is not much current at the bottom. The south coast dives could have stronger current and larger waves...

    Aruba Tourism "Dive In" video

    That was a very good video. They did a good job under the water and above. I have enjoyed the underwater world many, many times in Aruba and have seen many of the same scenes in the video. Ken

    Epic Download Problem

    I guess the joke's on me with my title for this thread. I didn't even think of it that way. It's amazing how the same exact words can be interpreted in so many different ways. Have a good day. Ken

    Epic Download Problem

    The download on the Aeris site fixes the problem. I've had 26 dives since the new year and after the update all the dives were imported correctly. If you delete the dives with the wrong year, then import, the dives with the correct year will be imported again.

    Epic Download Problem

    It looks like other people are having the same problem with other Aeris computers. Look at the thread http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/aeris/317923-atmos-ai-dec-31-2009-problem.html You'll see the same problem. Hopefully, Aeris will fix this very quickly. Ken

    Atmos ai Dec 31, 2009 Problem

    I had the same type of problem with my Epic. I did a dive on 12/31 and it imported as 2009. Then I did a dive on 1/1 and it imported as 2000. 3 more dives on 1/2, still 2000. 3 more on 1/3, still 2000. THere must be a bug in their download software as my computer is showing the correct 2010...

    Epic Download Problem

    I have the Epic computer and have been downloading dives to my PC very successfully. However, on 1/1/2010, the dives have been coming in with the date of 1/1/2000. I have checked the date on the computer and it is set correct. Any ideas? Ken

    Aruba in May

    Yes, Native Divers, Clive or Jads are very good choices, but I wouldn't dismiss all of the other dive shops. There are other good operators besides those 3. Ken

    Aruba in May

    Yes, they do have 2 big boats, but they always have enough DM's to keep the groups around 6 or 7 people. Many times, they limit the number of divers just because they don't have enough staff to keep the ratio's in line. Ken

    5mm or 3mm exposure suit

    Definitely, get a 5mm full sut. If you were cold previously, you'll need it. If you look at the DM's and Instructors, you'll see they wear 5mm or 7mm suits. True, they do a lot more diving everyday, but you won't feel like you're out of place with a heavy wet suit. Also, if you're warm, you...
