Short notice but wanting to dive with Great Lakes Divers tomorrow or Wednesday. Boat requires minimum of 4 people. Visiting from Indianapolis until Wed and already did two great dives yesterday with Thunder Bay scuba. PM me if interested.

Has anyone else had this problem before? Was diving White Star, OH this weekend. On first dive the camera froze up mid dive. Has happened once before years ago when I bought it (Gopro White 3). Annoying but requires reboot via removing battery which can only be done once out of water. However...

Has anyone tried using a hand warmer/portable charger (similar to this Amazon.com : EnergyFlux 4400mAh Rechargeable Double-Sided Hand Warmer / USB External Battery Pack -Carnation Pink : Camping Hand Warmers : Sports & Outdoors) within drysuit to keep core temp up? Saw one at store yesterday and...

Repairing some tears and patches on booties with aquaseal and tube keeps drying up. Have gone through two tubes now and regardless of cap being on securely it still dries up entire tube. Am I missing some obvious step or does entire tube have to be used within days of being opened? Is there an...

Dive in midwest and current setup is 7mm fullsuit with 2mm hood/vest and lavacore hood. Works great until water temp gets below 60. Am looking into options for thicker hood/vest. Would it be best to get a lavacore long sleeve with hood attached along with thicker hood or simply get hood/vest...

I'm doing family trip to Orlando next week and am looking for any sort of manatee diving/snorkeling available within under hour drive of Orlando. Finding that Crystal River is most popular but is over 1.5 hours away. I'm only certified diver in family so doubtful scuba would be an option. Plus...

Did a pool dive tonight to test correct weighting and neutral buoyancy. Dove with 1200 psi and didn't think tank buoyancy would be an issue. Normally I dive with 20pnds but ended up having to use 22. At what point during tank falling to a certain does tank become noticeably buoyant? Was...

I was born with vsd heart murmur (size of pin needle) and has never affected me entire life. Am 33 and have been diving since 98 with no trouble. 8 years ago I had a checkup on heart which shows the murmur has closed. My general doctor recommends not diving deeper than 50ft. Should I be overly...

Odd question but I'm looking for a particular wreck illustration. Not sure where I saw it originally. Is illustration of two wrecks which were sunk at same site and ending up landing on top of the other. Can't seem to remember source. Would appreciate if anyone could help in finding this image...

Found an article about thermalution heated suits in scuba magazine (:: THERMALUTION.COM :: Thermalution Heated Undersuit Is Your Only Solution TO Keep Warm!).

Has anyone else heard of wrecksight.com? Read article mentioning it when reading about upcoming Siggraph (Int. Computer Graphics group) conference entries. Basically it's system developed by St Andrews University and Dundee University working under the name ADUS (Archaeological Diving Unit...

Has anyone tried experimenting with linking GPS and fish finder together for underwater mapping? This would allow for mapping of lakes, quarry's, etc. Instructors could probably use it for DM training to check accuracy of students required to map a particular area. I know some fish finders allow...

I was just wondering if it was possible that a gas mask could be converted to have regulator plug into front and be used as a full face mask? Crazy idea but I was just wondering if any is or had been crazy enough to do this?

I know the subject of cotten mouth and drinking underwater has has been asked alot here but thought I'd ask a more specific question. Has anyone used a camel pack or bladder hydration system underwater without any problems with leaking?

Has anyone seen the preview for "The Cave"? I saw a poster for it at theater today and found a trailor online: http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/the_cave/ Evidently it's about a group of cave divers who get trapped underground with nasty creatures. Looks alot like "Pitch Black" but...
