Hey everyone. My wife and I along with my parents are taking a trip down to the Bahamas next spring and will be aboard the Cat Ppalu through Allstar Liveaboards. The trip is set to be a Citizen Scientist week to where were we would be moving sea urchins and documenting certain things. None of us...

Simply Scuba is a great channel. Lots of tips and gear reviews.

Hey everyone. I'll cut right to the chase. My dad lost most of his vision in his right eye about 4 years ago. Diagnosed with having a minor stroke in his right eye. And now recently, his lower half of the left eye has gone dark. He has been to some specialist including flying to Atlanta from NY...

Welcome

In many cases through out the dive, you can surface(no over head). When people would get low on air, they would surface and snorkel along the topside. Like I said, a flashlight in the BC is highly recommended to me. They just don't want 15 flashlights going off in every direction. Now as the...

My reasoning for it is safetey surprisingly. Everyone wears a green glow stick on their tank and the staff wears blue. So everyone knows who is who now. And when the lead staff is leading with his/her light, it's a guarantee that's a safe direction. Now I could be way off but that's what I came...

The surface temp was 61F and at depth(55 feet) the average was 59F. I wore my farmers johns wetsuit which is a 7mm. Along with my hood and 3mm gloves. Some were in drysuits including the staff. Not needed but was probably really comfortable. I was told no lights and no cameras with flash. Which...

It was a great weekend. Awesome diving and very knowledgable staff. Did trails 1-4 and will be doing 5-8 next time. Here's a little I made. You can't have your own light so I tried staying with the lead diver and use his. Enjoy :)

Hey everyone. Im driving up to Missouri today to do some diving at the Bonne Terre mines tomorrow. Just seeing if anyone is going as well or if anyone has dove there before. Ill be doing a total of 3 dives Saturday.

welcome

Welcome. Where have you dove so far?

Hey everyone. Wanted to post my recent video edit on here from Bonaire to show you guys. Hope to make more videos in the future knowing how to use iMovie now! Enjoy :)

Has anyone stayed at a resort there? Im usually fairly good at finding deals, packages etc. May have found one place that has decent prices. Others I've seen have been on the steeper side. Like 100US per dive...Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

welcome Kate. I have actually been looking at the real-estate in Bonaire lately. Have any advice for a future resident :)

Thanks for all the replies. When I first joined the Airforce, the plan was to stay in for the full 20 and retire earlier then most. It really is a great deal compared to many other peoples situations. But...I soon realized that it isn't for me. Don't get me wrong. I'am extremely proud of myself...

and sorry for the "poorly" written question haha Im going to bed now and wanted to at least get it out here to hopefully wake up to some input. :)

Hey everyone! Im gonna give you a little background on me first. 25 years old. Single. Crew chief in the Airforce(3 of 6 years completed). Stationed here in Little rock, Arkansas. Im not looking to work on planes forever tho. Its been a great experience for sure and seen parts of the world many...

Very true. Ive been crunching the numbers and have come up with a max budget of 6,000 dollars. Ive found a few that are right up to the max for everything(airfare, stay/dive). Would love to have a better buffer range for the what if's. I know for 3 divers its gonna be tough but doable for sure...

Yup, it would be my mother and father along with myself. That's a good point. She's not really high maintenance. Goes camping every year and enjoys the outdoors. But still might be worth the extra money for privacy. I'll sleep anywhere myself ha. I will have to bring up the accommodations of...

Thanks for the great advice. The trip would be around the September/October time frame. You definitely sparked something with Blackbeards liveaboard. Its been awhile since I've looked at them and they are a great deal. The staying in a hotel and use a shop is also a great way. Time to start...
