    underwater city in South Carolina

    It's been probably 15 years since I dove the area around the old Ferguson lumber mill (Lake Marion), but all I remember seeing underwater were remnants of an old loading dock there. Visibility was probably around 5' at best and has most likely not changed since. We put our boat in at Ferguson...

    Best prices aluminum 80

    You might want to contact them first though, its been a few years since I had tanks shipped from them. As pointed out above, I can also respect the view on why some shops would be unwilling to ship with a VIP sticker (or subsequently fill) since the cylinder is initially presented empty. When I...

    Cooper River Diving...Recent Reports?

    It's taking me 20 years of the diving the Cooper River here and there to find one that size. The best part is we were actually searching for lost dive gear when I "accidentally" found it. Years ago I took a friend on their first Cooper River dive and they found a 6" tooth immediately upon...

    US Navy Dive School Regs

    I figured it was just a generalization, PADI being a well known certifying agency. I went through Navy SCUBA as a dive instructor, but definitely didn't share that tidbit with my instructors!

    Hello all in the Charleston-Moncks Corner area

    John, Tail Race Canal next to or across from Gilligan's is a decent walk-in when the turbines aren't running. You can get approximate running times by calling 1-800-92-LAKES and listening for Jefferies Hydro. I usually go early in the morning though, before boat traffic gets busy there. Terry

Following boot camp, you will have a Diver/EOD prep course in Great Lakes before you report to NDSTC. If one does not successfully pass at dive school, the Navy would give you...

    large reward for lost camera

    A student lost one of my dive lights last September around Pimlico. Ashley Deming with SCIA emailed me in March letting me know she had found my light. It was recovered about 1/2 mile upriver and still worked. You never know!

    Diving Lake Marion, SC

    The "Brickyard" is on Lake Marion which I haven't dove as often. I conducted numerous OW checkout dives on Lake Moultrie off of Short Stay this summer. We had days where the visiblity was close to 15-20'. To top it off, I never saw any alligators!! I'm in the process of seeing if we can...
