    HELP !!! Choosing Caribbean dives...

    Grand Cayman is my whole hearted suggestion look up Trident Watersports: Home Page . They do not book through the cruise ships so you can get a better deal. They also do sting ray city, both the wading site and the dive site (only about 15-18 feet).

    silent bubbles

    Thanks to all for the information. As a follow-up question- what exactly is the impact of silent bubbles? Besides fatigue, are there long term problems if there are no deep dives for a while ?

    silent bubbles

    In a conversation with a tech diver regarding extreme depth dives on air, the guy mentioned silent bubbles as a possible effect of a deep dive. I have never heard of silent bubbles. Can you explain?

    SeaLife DC800

    Figured it out. When running the photos thru slide show, I noticed that certain pictures said "no preview available". Double clicking on it started it up in windows media explorer. I love this camera!

    SeaLife DC800

    I cannot download video files to my computer. The book says that video clips should be in one of the DCIM folders but I don't see them. The still pictures are there but no video. Any help?

    Settings for older divers

    Can the settings be changed to make the Aeris Atmos 2 more relevant to divers condition. For Instance, the bottom time remaining is set for an average diver, of average age, I assume. Can it be changed to reflect that the diver is older, say 60? Same for the nitrogen loading, safety stop time, etc?

    SeaLife DC800

    I have read the entries in this thread. Most posts seem to be from persons with various degrees of experience with underwater photography. I have none. Tried one of those $15 disposables but did not get one usable underwater picture. Should I get the DC 800? Is it easy to use/learn for someone...

    Conshelf fans welcomed

    I just purchased an owned but unused Conshelf 21 with octopus, conshelf 2nd stage and hose with depth and pressure gauge console for $200.00. Did I get a decent deal? As sndt1319 asks, is it going to cost $100.00 per year for service?

    Deviated septum

    Thanks DocVikingo My nose tilts to the left and that is the side I have trouble clearing. I am contemplating surgery. Some previous threads have indicated various recovery times from the surgery and I don't want to miss out on diving. I guess I need to get advice from an ENT.

    Water in the ears?

    Water in ear after dive. Just this past weekend I was told that I should put drops of alcohol in my ear, let that drain out and then put peroxide in and do the same. I didn't try it because I wanted to check it out first. How does it compare to the vinegar recipe given in this thread?

    fly time before diving

    I know from my certification course that one should not dive within 12 to 24 hours before flying. Is there a similar time from flying before the first dive?

    jet fins or bio-fins
