I've got five OMS power inflators that need to be serviced, but I don't know how to open them up, other than getting the nipple off. Can any of you walk me through it?

Hey there SoCal-ites, In reviewing "sticky situations" here on SB, we're trying to make sure that any/all stickies in the forums are really sticky-worthy. Many of our stickies are old/outdated and nobody has kept them current. In the SoCal forum, a big chunk of the first page of the post...

Anybody want to step up and update this list? If nobody wants to do it, I'll just unstick it and people can simply ask in the forum when they need help.

I attended a Chamber Orientation session yesterday to meet the new Diving Medical Technician of the SSS chamber here on Phuket and heard something that I hadn't considered before. The DMT said that we should be careful what water we drink here since most bottled water is distilled water rather...

This PPD forum is really weighted down with stickies! Which ones are really sticky-worthy? Which ones can we lose? Which ones are outdated? (And if so, who will volunteer to help update them?) Insights welcome!

Please welcome Crowley, longtime SB member and entertaining blogger, as ScubaBoard's newest Moderator. We're thrilled to have such a well-traveled diver, seasoned dive professional, and congenial SBer as part of the Moderation Team. :cool3:

The discussion below was split off from a thread in Accidents and Incidents in response to a diver death. As a generalized discussion, it is not germane to the specific incident in question and therefore now has its own dedicated thread.

This topic grew from the discussion of an accident that took place in Cozumel, Mexico. As such, several posts were split and edited to focus each discussion. Some of the links embedded in quoted posts may point back to the original A&I thread. I have placed this split-off thread in Basic Scuba...

I saw the thread title in my notifications and wanted to see what folks had noted down, but the thread was gone with the data loss.... so I found a cached copy and did a few screen shots... Please carry on!

I've posted polls before and today when I tried to make one, I got the window saying it would take me to the poll-making page, but it just sat there blank forever. So I tried it on two other browsers, getting the same result. The only effect all this had was the posting of three identical...

In a massive cleanup effort, divers, operators, and resorts collaborated in a world-record event on Phuket today. I wish I could have participated, but I'm on my way to Brazil for a family visit. Nevertheless, I wish to voice my support and pleasure in some way, so KUDOS to all involved!

I've just heard through the grapevine that national park fees are set to increase on Oct 1 for a number of popular parks that divers frequent. These include the Similan Islands NP and the Surin Islands NP, among others. The current fees for these two parks, which are generally charged as an...

IDing coral is so tough, and I'm at a loss on this one: Polyps are extended and they don't look like acropora even though the structure looks branchy.... Found in the Philippines at Cabilao Island. ---------- Post Merged at 10:51 PM ---------- Previous Post was at 11:26 AM ---------- No...

Hi Aqualung. I own a Zuma Pro BCD for which I would like to get some optional trim weight pockets. I've been waiting about 9 months for my local distributor (Aquamaster Thailand) to obtain these for me, but they haven't come in even after all this time. Is there a way I can get them from you and...

This debate has been split off a trip report to the Blue Heron Bridge and Boynton area as it discusses the comparisons between Palm Beach County and the Keys rather passionately. Instead of derailing the trip report, we've started a new thread to discuss people's views. Politely, please! The...

As a female who regularly has to cope with condescension from a subclass of male colleagues who see themselves as Dive Gods, I take heart from science: Women divers outdo men, study claims - Telegraph

I noticed this incident mentioned in a different thread and thought I'd post it here. The lesson that the buddy has taken from the incident is that it's worthwhile to have more than one PLB in case one of them fails. Diver Lost & Found out of NRI Thanks PLB - FryingPanTower.Com
