Ha ha, you will fit right in. :giggle: Welcome

Happy wife, happy life, you are in "the good books". Now you can stick to something simple for a 2nd stage and be happy also, like a G250v.

Here are a few. https://divingadelaide.com.au/diving/best-dive-sites-in-south-australia/ This is only 18M, I liked this dive as well. I don't go out of my way to dive " shipwrecks sunk as artificial reefs" but I liked the vis and the sea life...

I had a great place North of where I am now, Had a 'itch' and said it was time to move. Glad I did though, the place is too peopley now, covid was one of the triggers, so many moved North from the Southern states and out of the cities. If you want warm, cyclone proof, few people, not expensive...

Inverted like mine , except the pony has a Mk2 DIN and G250 or S600 2nd. AS above, DIN.

Who else finds the term "broken in" scary? Ok, it could be just me. Deleted my long post about, seats and pistons and whatnots 'setting in' first and 2nd stages etc, that's for another topic. The word 'broken' does not sit well when talking about regulators with my OCD mind. :oops: What broke?

+1....^^

Missed me, I will be in Bali May and November.

We are a nanny state already , all of Australia, that is, and my state of Queensland tops the list. I have taught diving in most states over the years but only had a dive charter boat in two, and that was enough, and I had enough of the overregulation. Overregulation, dive cylinders hydro tested...

What dates are you thinking of going to dive the USAT Liberty ? It could be while I am still in Sanur.

:giggle: DM sent.

What a great idea, thanks . Private car, never thought of that, self drive or with a driver who knows the way and how do dodge the mad scooter riders, I am sure it will worse than last time I was there, half pissed Aussies and Brits the worst on scooters [this was last century].:oops: And not...

Scubapro Go Sport fins for travel and the Go Sport Gorilla fins for local diving. The Mares fins a good, I have a couple of pair, but for any warm water travel, it's the Go Sport as they pack easy and do the job well. https://scubapro.johnsonoutdoors.com/us/shop/fins/go-sport-fin?v=97221

It is NOT the equipment, it's the photographer, good gear helps , I was a wedding photographer for years [as side line to scuba instructor and dive boat owner, and guess which paid better. :acclaim: ] , I just do not take a camera underwater, you do, and you are good at it, and I others see it...

Crossed over to NAUI in 1991, The navy paid for me to become a civilian dive instructor in 1985 [resettlement training to civie life after 20+ years], I was NAUI advanced and Rescue as a civilian when I did the PADI instructor course. We needed a civilian C Card to get gas fills from civilian...

I resemble that remark. :giggle:

Yes , I know this, I was sending the OP a DM and posted here by mistake. Just wanted know which dive shop he used when in Sanur. I know a couple of new diver going there who asked if I knew of any dive shops , which I did not, only what I see online , it's been awhile since I have been there ...

G'dy mate, I know this is old news, but just curios, who did you dive with in Bali ? I will be in Sanur from the 8th of May for 15 days. Thanks in advance. Bob.

Found this story today, ABC Australia. Worth a read. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-04-11/world-war-ii-shipwrecks-oil-pacific-solomon-islands/103668146

If it more than 6 hours flying away for only 5 or 6 days it is too far for me. 14 to 21 days minimum, then I would travel the distance 'across the world' . My next trip is 15 days, and that is stretching it with the flight only 5-6 hours. There is a good chance you are much younger than me...
