I am really interested in taking the GUE Fundies class in the near future. After reading the posts about peoples experiences with the class it has me a bit nervous. It seems like it is somewhat difficult to pass with a rec pass rating the first time. With course costs, travel to Dallas...

What SMB spool to all of you use? I do not plan to get into cave diving but really enjoy wreck diving at recreational depths. Not sure if that makes a difference. What spool would you all recommend to use and for class?

Is a Halcyon Infinity considered DIR/GUE complaint since it is a single continuous piece of webbing that makes up the harness? I had a bi- level spinal fuson where the cinch ability of the rig would most likely make it easier for me to work with the rig out of water and if doffing gear when...

Getting ready to commit to a trip to the Phillipines in Puerto Galera in September or October. I think our front runners are Scandi Dive Resort and El Galleon. Will 6 or 7 dive days doing 4 dives per day be sufficient to cover most that PG has to offer? Also, is there any difference betwen...

How far in advance should I book flights to the Philippines to get the best rates?

Anyone here have any experience with them? NARAYANA LIVEABOARD I cant seem to find any reviews.

Does anyone have an email address to contact them for pricing and general questions. I am looking to do a 3 or 4 night stay there after a LOB trip to Tubbataha. Also any info on the resort like if there is shore diving would be great.

I have decided to bite the bullet and started saving for a trip in 2019 on a liveaboard to supplemant my yearly carribean trips. I had posted in the Indo forum asking for suggestions and what came up was Raja Ampat, PNG, and Komodo mostly as where the best places to go to see sharks, reefs...

I am saving for a liveaboard trip to indonesia on the side of my yearly carribean diving trips but am overwhelmed at the options and just dont know where to go. I understand a liveaboard is the best option. The airfare cost to indonesia is what keeps me going back to the caribbean since our...

What is it like living on board that seaventure rig? How do you do the jetty diving from the rig? Is there a reef below it you can dive while not on a dive boat. Sipidan really interests me because of the large fish schools and the price.

During all of my underwater video I am contantly hearing creaking from the locline arms. I guess it is due to the limitations they have bearing weight of strobes and such. Also, I am contantly having to adjust them underwater as they sometimes shift a little. What are some of the better...

Does anyone with a G7x/Fantasea housing rig have the Bigeye lens? If so how well does it work?

I am looking for a reg for my 12 year old son and would like to know the differences between the g260 and s560 regs. They are very close price so I am having a difficult time deciding. He is a recreational diver who normally gets around 50 dives per year.

I would like some opinions from anyone who has stayed here. I understand this is not a luxurry resort which is fine by me. How was the diving? Any shore diving here? Are additional boat dives available per day besides the 2 package ones? Nightlife?

How is the spearing in Hawaii, particularly Oahu? What is a typical catch from the shore or a boat?

We just got back from a 10 night trip at the Blue Angel. It was our first trip to Cozumel and definitely will not be our last. The diving was incredible!! There were five of us in our group so 7 out of the 8 dive days we were put on our own boat with Tony our divemaster. Tony was so...

Is there anywhere in the Cozumel airport to convert US Dollars to Mexican Pesos? I just checked XE and the current rate is 1 to 18.86. I am leaving for my first trip there tomorrow.

Next year, most likely sometime in the summer I will be travelling to Oahu to visit my son for a week or so who is stationed at Pearl. We are all divers and I have contacted Gabe at Kaimana divers to get things prepped for some boat dives. While I have the boat dives covered I am also...

I am looking for destinations to get 25+ dives in for a week long trip at a dive resort other than Bonaire, Cozumel, and Roatan. Right now a liveaboard is not in the budget. Cost effective places with entertaining shore dives would be a plus to me as we travel and dive as a family.

I am taking the family to Coumel for the first time in November. Since it is drify diving will any type of fins suffice? Example, my wife has splits that arent great in current and she would rather make it through at least on more trip before I buy new ones for her.
