Sure I see that but hit the rocks at "cruising speed"...how did she know that?

I wonder how she knows this when she admits to being awoken by the crash! I am wondering if the Mexican Navy or other "authorities" have the nav logs. It would be great to see the GPS tracking log. Someone told me there is a website that has tracks of ships out in that area.

Amazing that lots of people seek answers and refunds from Pacific Fleet operators. Their FB page is exploding with questions and of course Trip Advisor has a bunch of complaints. Seems many divers, including Marissa loved the luxury cabin way too much and anyone asking her questions gets...

Another diver on board was Pete Mesley who had a groups with him. He told me regarding the weather..."It was ****. Sw 10-15"...Pete also woken at 2 am by the crash into the rocks. It seems to me that these divers, as a group, need to sue the operator. There will likely be many attempts to cover...

Got this from a friend down in Baja...

I heard the Mexican Navy has set up a restricted zone around Isla Socorro, meaning no dive vessels can go there right now. Anyone else heard this?

So given what you say above, compare Revo to the Optima. Have you any time on the Optima?

Looking for a complete unit in good condition with or without cylinders. Someone out there may have one they are not using or are not interested in CCR diving. I might consider an older unit with Hammerhead. PM me with some pics and your asking price.

This is an interesting thread. On a humorous note, are kids actually learning anything at colleges these days with all the protests?? More seriously, it would be nice to see a separate thread (maybe it exists somewhere) on how to choose the "best" CCR (rebreather) instructor/and or agency. I am...

Love the progress so far and the action shots.Just need to know about available lodging and here I come! Might try AirBnB to see what is available in Key Largo. Are the available hotel rates high or low compared to this time last year?

No problem Frank. Stress make us do funny things, LOL. In reading some residents Facebook posts, I wonder what the real motivation is for the bureaucrats to keep the residents out? Something to hide? The following post is from a resident who seems to know what he is talking about...

Frank...I don't think that way at all! Not why I started this thread! You have a right to be upset, and thanks for adding to the thread some very good info...from a resident, not a media clown. I have seen a ton of this, trust me, and won't bother listing the numerous links of media reports...

I would think if the dive shops get up and running, and dive tourists are wanting to book trips, they would be let in. Who would be stopping them from coming in? FHP? My biggest concern is a place to stay in Key Largo. So far, no one has commented on the hotels in this thread. When will they be...

I was booked weeks ago to dive the Keys in October/November but had to cancel due to Irma. Lots of media reports of Keys damage and residents now being allowed back. So far, I have not seen any media interviews of dive shop owners or boat operators. It may be too early at this time to know...

Really? Welding gas? Is that smart? What are the specs on this gas? It seems this whole thread doesn't take into account the increased risk that CCR diving has, compared to OC. What is a life worth?

I am told by ADD Helium's Admin Director, that they have plenty of students signing up and they use instructors from various agencies, like IANTD, SSI. So if it is the instructor's credential that gives the certification, it should not matter what classroom you sit in. Correct? And to be clear...

Not all. If you spend time going over all the pleadings, you will see that the Federal court filing took priority. Some motions in the state court filings have yet to show an action (denied, continued, etc.). Perhaps a call to the attorneys might shed more light.

I am happy to have started it. Can't wait to get the hard copy. Perhaps Jeff himself (or his close buddies) can chime in on whether a 3rd Edition is in the works.

"Housekeeping"?? I did it on purpose to inform others of the trial Order. If one wanted to get into the legal weeds they could look it all up. And you only cited the Federal case and not the State cases that are pending. Some may like all the details tossed up front...some don't. And not...

There appears to be a final date set for trial in the Rob Stewart death case (see attached document). The family of Stewart filed the initial complaint in Federal District court, it was then remanded to State court, then was barred from any actions in the State court by a Federal judge and now...
