So, after diving through two Cobras (one died thanks to me getting some water in the HP opening thanks to not drying the QD well enough) and two D9s (one stolen), not to mention having a spare gauge set, I'm not able to recommend their product. My father has a Cobra2 with a whopping 25 dives on...

Hi everybody, I'm moving back to Prince George in August to attend UNBC. I'll be starting up a dive business there -- at very least doing training from introductory dives right up through assistant instructor, and perhaps helping to reincarnate the only dive shop I've known to exist in the...

Aloha Everybody! Have you wondered how you can make a difference for the coral reefs around Maui? Well, join us on the morning of June 26, 2008 for a CoralWatch monitoring dive at Ulua Beach and be a part of a global effort to protect reefs from drastic decline. Why now, you ask? New...

Aloha Everybody! I'm planning on offering the full Diving Emergency Management Provider program, in addition to the On-site Neurological Assessment for Divers course sometime between July 19 and August 4, 2008. With the DEMP program, you'll be trained as a Divers Alert Network Emergency...

We now have a multi-place chamber, equipped, staffed and available for use on Maui! I spoke with the technicians / local managers today, as I was in Wailuku for the First Friday's event. Their primary focus is hyperbaric treatments for various conditions, however the staff are divers / dive...

Hi all, Does anybody have any details on the incident between a dive boat and surfer/surfers near Kihei Boat Ramp earlier this year? I haven't found *any* details online (aside from an anonymous customer that posted a review on a travel website). Basically the story goes that the...

so I was finishing up an open water certification for my sister's boyfriend today at Ulua and we had a decent first dive... I suspect that the cleaner shrimp past the second reef are feeling some hurt from the storm, too... They couldn't get enough of us, venturing more than a foot from their...

No photos, sorry folks. I didn't get there in time, but I'm sure the Maui News will have some coverage of this. Y'all have probably heard of the hammerhead sightings along the South Maui coastline over the last week... if not, here's the preamble: Maui News | Shark sighted – again...

Has anyone heard this from someone other than Atlantis personnel? I understood that "oceanspace" wasn't available for lease and the only controls that are allowed are mandated and enforced by the USCG. I have heard this very strongly said by several Atlantis employees, so I'm just curious if...

Just got back from Oahu, where I passed the IE with flying colours! It's official -- I'm an instructor! (Please allow 48-72 hours for the paperwork to be filed and the computer records to reflect this) :) I'll let Mark report in on his own -- don't want to spoil his glory! One quick...

Just heard some news worthy of sharing here... one of the aluminium boats (12-pack?) that Maui Dive Shop runs out of the Kihei Small Boat Ramp on Maui is currently sitting with only its bow about 3 feet out of the water, still attached to the mooring at Enenue (a Molokini site). All crew and...

http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2006/07/01/drowning-inquest.html To me, this sounds like they're saying that masks (like us divers wear) should be banned from all public pools and beaches in New Brunswick. Anybody have any other thoughts on this?

So, I'm looking through the Discover Scuba Diving ( http://www.padi.com/padi/common/pdfs/kd/course/dsd.pdf ) instructor manual, and notice that Divemasters can do DSD's in a "confined open water" environment, but not "open water". What is the definition of a "confined open water" environment?
