    GPS Coords for Boonsung Wreck

    We just finished a 4D4N live aboard yesterday (more on that to follow) and the last dive on the way back to Tab Lamu was the Boonsung Wreck. With the commotion of getting packed, etc. I was not able to grab the coordinates of the site for my logbook. Does anyone have them handy? Thanks in advance.

    We're fortunate to be going on a 4D4N liveaboard in the Similan Islands in a couple of weeks and are curious if anyone can recommend a book to help identify the wildlife we will see in the Andaman Sea.

    "New To Me" Gavin DPV rigging questions

    I had planned on waiting until after I finish Tech 1 to start looking at DPVs, but a friend just gave me his old Gavin DPV when he was cleaning out his garage.

    Salvo 35w HID can light with intermittent failures

    I have an old Salvo (now Light Monkey) HID light that has started randomly shutting off. Cycling the power switch has reliably worked to turn it back on, but sometimes it will fail again a minute or two later and other times it stays on for a long period. I'm thinking it is likely the toggle...
