    Shout out to Dive-Tronix and Shearwater

    After hundreds of flawless dives, my 2018 Perdix AI started talking back. Thank you Richard Morton from Dive-Tronix, the Shearwater Service Center in Snohomish, WA, and the unnamed folks at Shearwater in Canada for the courteous, friendly, attentive, communicative, and if it's good you name it...

    Dive resorts in Southern Raja Ampat?

    I'll be on a liveaboard in mid March, one week, will not be going south. Is anyone here aware of a dive resort(s) on Misool, or at least in the south, that is NOT the Misool Eco Resort? Haven't had much luck finding anything either in the Indonesia threads or through a general search.

    ES 145 mask

    This was the only mask that ever fit me. It blew out during descent a few years ago and I've spent more on leaky masks than I have on regulators. This model was discontinued and subsequent dive rite masks and knock offs (dgx) are skirted for medium to wide faces. As far as I can tell my face is...

    Nine days (kind of) to spare in April. Help!

    I get off a Komodo trip April 15. Need to be back on Bali April 24. I've been looking at Alor and East Timor in particular as possible options for 6 days of diving (depending on travel time). I'm assuming the only way I'm going to get anyplace is through DPS, so there goes the 15th (at least)...

    Socorro on the Quino el Guardian: anyone dive with them before?

    I'm thinking of getting my big fish fix and started researching Socorro. Have no interest in the mega boats and the best I could come up with is the quino el guardian, which dives 16, housed in quad cabins. That's more than I prefer but that seems to be the best option. Boat looks good, and...

    Mask repair

    I'm using a dive rite es 145 frameless mask, which is no longer made. It's the only mask I've ever owned that fits properly. The rubber skirt is separating from the glass at the top, and I was forced to blindly abort my last dive. I've tried several other masks but can't find a frameless fit...

    her first reg - advice

    A little background - she is a manager at a Philippines dive resort - and making Philippines wages (as in, not much). So any outlay will be large. It makes more sense for me to pick up a set here in USA price and selection wise, and bring it there with me. Not much diving history, but will...
