    Crab cooking

    I don't use a sharp stick I usually use a nice hard edge on the boat and break the back down the middle and toss the guts overboard as I am cleaning them. If they are going home I fill up a big tub of water keeping them live until I get home and clean them in a similar manner using a plastic...

    Joining the PNW divers!!

    Welcome and -- wow you went all the way to Austrailia to get certified, there are a few good shops around that would have saved what I am sure was a great trip. This is a great site for info about gear and such but there is a local board that is better for sites around Seattle and PNW...

    Diving for Crabs

    I didn't think that you could go for geoduck on scuba in this state? If you can I have another critter to the list that I need to be getting while diving. How do you deal with the shellfish licence dangling around your neck?

    Solo

    We often get seperated in poor vis that is Puget Sound much of the time. So you are diving by yourself but there is somebody in close proximity if you don't surface really close to the same time they can come looking for your remains without getting a search party.

    And you believe them? Predicting weather in Seattle is as accurate as if it was done with a coin.

    If medicine wasn't as good as it is Darwinism would work much better at getting these buffons out of the gene pool.

    Consider Yourself Warned !

    You know if maybe just maybe she was getting what that tool was substituting in for a bit more she wouldn't be wound so tight to need to be suing Delta? I can only imagine the insufferable wench she must be.

    Seattle diving?

    Three dives a day in a wet suit will definitely zap you but if someone is coming to visit from warmer waters odds of them having drysuit availble (as rental or own equipment) is not very likely. If somewhere new and diving was availble for a couple dives I would endure sub-optimal gear just...

    @#*(%^'ing market

    But how many people can actually afford 320K house on salary alone (let alone 1.2M)? I think many of the houses sold were bought with money being made in stock markets. I have done alright via real estate but limited liquidity and unstable economy has me a bit worried that I can keep them...

    Speargun Question

    When I miss (often doo) I tuck the butt in the at my hip joint and single motion to pull individual bands into shaft. Might not work as well if your gun is more than 48" or so.

    Seattle diving?

    Plenty of diving to be had in Puget Sound and San Juan Islands. 6.5mm wetsuit is more than enough for diving around here especially during the summer where being trapped in drysuit will cook you faster than a drive thru french fry. I am actually thinking about buying a wetsuit just for...

    Honest question about DIR

    Unless it it glow in the dark a color shouldn't be impacting your night vision. Here is a nice little excercise to prove my point-- get the brightest colored thing you have carry it into the bathroom (assume no windows) turn off the light and shine a flashlight around..... see no glowing spot...

    Secondary Regulator... Do you use one?

    Now from what I am seeing here is everyone making the ASSumption that everybody make the jump over to tech-- while it does sound like this guy has interests in possibly heading that way to rule out the air II or octo+ on those premises isn't fair. What about if someone has no plans to go...
