    Gulf Stream Eagle

    Hey diveprof how are you? I am going on that same trip, I can't wait to shove off! This is my 2nd liveaboard, I did Blackbeards two years ago. I'm local to the Gulf Stream Eagle and she is an impressive vessel. I look forward to meeting you on the boat!

    NJ/NY Wreck Dive Reports

    Dive Report 6/12 We were treated to a gorgeous day on the North Atlantic with air temps in the 70's and flat seas. The Diversion II hooked into the wreck of the Pinta for two dives. Depth to sand was 85' with the bottom temp at 49 F. Viz was 15'-20'. The Pinta is a great wreck. A few...

    NJ/NY Wreck Dive Reports

    That is too funny. As a matter of fact, I was the guy who yelled if you guys were waiting for high tide when we were pulling out. I didn't see you guys pass us, but you sure did beat us to the Pinta. That was our destination too, but I think our Captain had bum #s for the wreck. We searched...

    NJ/NY Wreck Dive Reports

    I think the water has warmed up a little bit. Besides I'm diving the Pinta which only goes to 90'. I don't care if I get cold down there. I want to go diving :) WITH the wet suit. Dive report next week.

    NJ/NY Wreck Dive Reports

    Very nice Brian! You're reports were great to read and very informative of the conditions. Wow I can't wait to get out to the Stolt again, especially with that great Viz! I've always noticed great viz in the top and middle water column on that wreck, but down on the bottom it is usually...

    NJ/NY Wreck Dive Reports

    Greetings fellow wreckers, Do any of you have any recent trip reports from wreck dives in the North Atlantic? I'm not going to doing my first NJ wreck dive until mid June because I'm still diving wet. I would love to hear some of your adventures plus what conditions are like out there right...

    Weight Belt on before or after BP/Wing?

    Hi all, I just bought a new Oxycheq BP/Wing setup and now I'm trying to get it adjusted right. One of my dilemas is do I put the weight belt on before or after this BC? The Harness system has a waist belt with a quick release buckle and a crotch strap. So I'm thinking in I put the weightbelt...

    Dutch trip May 15-16-DUI Days

    Hi guys, I'll be up at Dutch 5/15 to try out my new BP/Wing setup. I just bought it and it has a lot of adjusting to do! I'll be diving wet and I'm wondering what the water temp is up there top to bottom. I hope to meet some of you guys, where will you guys be hanging out at?

    Reg Config with single tank + Pony bottle

    Ok first off I have to admit I had to look up Pandora's Box on Google to catch your humor there. After I followed your link I see your point as well. That site seemed to be geared towards tech divers with deco bottles. I am purely a recreational diver who uses a single tank with a pony...

    Reg Config with single tank + Pony bottle

    I dive with a single steel 120 + a pony bottle. I just bought tanks and a new backplate/wing set up and I'm a little confused on how to config my reg with my pony bottle. Guys at my dive shop are saying to take my octo off my reg and put that on my pony bottle so I only have 2 second stages...

    quick trip report

    Hey thanks for the trip report. It's great to get an idea of conditions out there from you brave souls who venture out so early! 35 degree bottom temps, WOW. That is hard core. I'm still diving wet so my first wreck dive isn't till mid June. I'm hoping bottom temps will be up to 50 by then...

    Wearing Microprene under a 7mm suit?

    Wow I never thought of dry gloves. The few times where I actually got cold enough that I had to end the dive I got really cold in my hands to the point they were numb and I was losing some dexterity in them. This sensation began moving up my arms so I ended the dive. Of course the extremities...
