Anyone bother using one? If so, do you remove it for rinsing the comp after SW dives?

So I just bought a new Peregrine. Have not dove It yet (came in yesterday), these are my initial thoughts on it: I’m a rec diver, not a tech diver & I only dive one gas at a time. Usually 32% nitrox. I bought mine from Dive Gear Express. It comes packaged in a small storage case. Inside the...

There is only one facility in the gulf panhandle region & it's not in FL, it's the Springhill Medical Center in Mobile AL, 1 mile west of where I work & am sitting right now. The next closest one is about 450 miles from here. Anyone planning a trip to dive the Oriskany needs to know where this...

I figured this may be of general interest to some. I have 3 Versa Pro 2 nav consoles. On all 3 the computers crapped out. The first was mine, the oldest, bought in 2004. It was maybe 7+ years old at the time. I was getting geared up to dive, booted it up & it went into deco mode. The others...

Greetings fellow wrench turners. I've decided to finally make the jump & start doing my own reg service this year. I have a mixture of vintage and late model scubapro, Some Mk5 and R109's as well as newer Mk2/Mk11/Mk25/G250V sets, so some chrome & some no chrome & plastic. Wondering about any...

Looks like no dive shop there, but there is one iin Gulf Shores. I know a really good shop in Destin, but that's 2 hrs away. First interview (phone) went well, will have a 2nd (phone of face to face, to be determined). Anyone close to Mobile? I know there are a few shore dive sites reasonably...

It's over 7 years old, can't really complain. I made the mistake of turning it on for a dive at Vortex on friday. After booting up it lit up, beeped at me & told me that I was in deco mode, the depth kept ranging from 1 - 10 feet, LOL Vortex being a safety stop, I didn't worry about it & had my...

Wife has the metal detector bug & wants to do some hunting on the beaches there. I'd like to get a couple of tanks in to hunt bugs if possible, but at least to see something other than sand, which requires a site that lets us do both. Never been there. Any suggestions?

and Happy New Year to all my FL friends & dive buds. Just in case I miss talking to anyone before next year. May your Christmas be everything you dream of & may your next year be your best ever.

Diving Southeast Florida On The Cheap -or- What I Did With My Weekend Vacation I've returned From plundering the sea & have booty!!! Back in June I found out that Rush was in concert in West Palm Beach, FL, on saturday 02 October. Well, I have friends just south of that, so can easily...

I carry one of these small lites as a backup. Last trip out my primary failed at the start of the dive, so I pulled this one out & started looking for bugs. Was working fine at depth. After looking over one bit of structure I turned it off, moved to the next bit & it wouldn't turn on. Depth was...

Go up early to hitch a ride with Bil. Plan was to get 2 tanks in. His friend Mark met us there. Water is 86 top to bottom. Wore swim suit & T shirt for both dives. Have sea urchin in one knee as a result, LOL Viz was the best I've ever seen it there, 30 feet or more & blue for the first tank...
