Thank you Jennifer, saf_25, Stefan Appreciate the advice and looking forward to meeting you tomorrow morning. I'm finishing projects on my desk and will be catching a plane in a few hours.

Hi Guys: I am flying in Friday night at 9PM to be able to dive with your group Saturday AM. Decided at the last minute and am having trouble getting a 7mm . Hope I can rent one at Catalina. I have reservations on the 8:00AM from QM. If anyone knows of a place in Long Beach that is open...

Hi Juls: When is the Midwest Divers next meeting or dive?

Joani: I did not find the diving on the Mona itinerary difficult. The crew on the Nekton Rorqual is very safety conscious and took good care of all divers. What I liked most about the crew was they were committed to safety, however not attached to it. They did give us freedom to dive as we...

Hey Everyone. You really do not need a buddy. I went on the Rorqual Mona trip Jan.1 by myself and had a great time. There were several other single divers and the crew loves it when passengers request a buddy dive. "Buddy duty" is the crews favorite job. I had a great time. The seas...

Hi Lonewolf: Wow.......how did you end up in Mexico City? It can be a fun city if you know what you are doing a little rough if you don't. The best part of DF is that you are less than a half days car ride to the Atlantic and the Pacific. Plus a cheap and quick flight to my favorite dive...

I am going on a live-aboard and want to get a new pair of boots. The zipper on my old pair constantly opens and I feel like I'm wearing a couple of parachute around my ankles. I've tried adding velcro straps, giant rubberbands, tucking the boots inot the wetsuit and Even considered my favorite...

Marlins can enjoy the win. They capitalized on some errors and had a nice comeback. Tomorrow, the Cubs will win the series .;)

Bill....that picture is awesome. That's a framer. Wow Where were you guys? Aug.'04 Got to consider this one. I would like to do a Blackbeard. I'd consider a trip in the spring or summer. Can't beat the cost and convenience. There are many posts on blackbeard. Almost all positive. I...

Uhhmm my favorite local dive spot is Florida. And I prefer even further south. Actually, I've been diving since '98 and never dove fresh water. OK I'm sure to get some grief. I do plan an diving Lake Michigan...someday, but it's low on my list of planned dives. When I said let's plan...

Hi Bill and Chicago Divers I'm in the NW Burbs. I also am fairly new to the board. It's very informative and sometimes entertaining. There are some real characters on-board. My favorite LDS is Underseas SCUBA in Villa Park and Berry in Palatine. I've taken many great dive trips with...

Hey Swampmonster. There are a lot of people on the board from Chicago. Go Cubs. Hey.. in a fast car, we can road trip to the FL. Keys. My friend, you need some salt water.

I just booked the trip and am ready to dive. This sounds like a fantastic trip and I've heard great things about the crew. Bob

Hey People I just booked a dive trip over NYE on the Nekton Rorqual. I did a lot of research and found this to be a most excellent adventure. It sounds like really challenging and diverse diving. This will be Nektons second cruise in this remote area. Here's the itinerary...

Hey O-Ring Check out the Windjammer/ Legacy out of St.Thomas. I have a reservation and just waiting for airfare info before I confirm. The tall ship only takes 122 people. I think I was 102. I'm thinking of making some of my own dive arrangements with operators who have been recommended...

Hi All: I'd love to find a group going on a dive trip over New Years. My usual dive friends are staying home and I want to get warm and dive. Considering a Windjammer trip. Anyone ever been on the Legacy? How's diving in the Virgin Islands? Look forward to your info and getting...
