    Possible Camping Vacation

    MK--That's Crazy Talk! Pensacola is home to a very aggressive artificial reef program that began years ago. We have hundreds of sites that are incredible dives, including a "line" of M1 tanks, crew boats, tenders, liberty ships, freighters--all teeming with healty marine life. Why on earth...

    Spoiled?

    Nicely Done, Jelly Bean. I know Jeff, and he's an outstanding DM and great guy. You did the right thing by getting a DM to go with you. Since you are certified, using a DM on challenging dives is one of the best ways to gain experience and confidence, all the while pleasing the Scuba Police...

    Pensacola Beach

    Do You Agree?

    Granted, I've been drinking, but I don't think the question was, "Should the kid be in the quarry?" If you've been diving for any period of time, you're going to have a need to clear your mask. The question was, "Should his buddy pull him back down?"

    Do You Agree?

    totally pull him back under. This process also works well on kids who won't clean their room. It's just a "different" version of waterboarding. No one got hurt and the kid got his mind right.

    Oriskany in May

    If I were you, I'd go for Portofino--specifcally Tower 2, unit 1206. Sure it's not so west of Pensacola, but it is nice, and the owner is waaay cool--and a Divemaster as well.

    Dive beer?

    When I lived on the beautiful island of Crete, nothing washed away the Agean salt like a cold bottle of Henninger. Now though, Red Stripe is working just fine.

    Diving Pensacola in winter

    There is a lot going on in the winter months here in Pensacola. Like Superbugman said, the Oriskany the most recognized, but we have hundreds of other places closer...which helps if the seas are way up way out. We even have some bay dives that are fairly sweet. Check with your favorite op to...

    Heard Everything now

    It looks like our own PNJ picked up the link and ran with it on the front page. This morning, rather than on the porch like usual, the paper landed a few steps down from my front porch, making it a riskier fetch. But I just had to touch it so I could read what a damn slow newsday Pensacola was...

    Vacation on the Med

    I'm planning on coming the Mediteranean next summer and I'm looking for a place to stay and I need your help on where to stay. I want to be close to the beach, the market, downtown, etc...and I'm willing to pay for it. I plan on three-four months there with access to diving, clubs, groceries...

    Oriskany Question/Other Local Sites

    Yes. Several bouys mark the Oriskany Yes. The Chevron (a couple of donated oil rig towers located 2 miles from the oriskany) has one dontated by a local Captain and member of this board (Bludvr). Bottom is 138, but the top of one platform is 80 ft; the platform on the other one is 100. Look...

    My experience with North Atlantic Scuba in Marshfield

    Am I the only who thinks that Skubaa_99 works for that shop? Maybe even the "kid?" Dude, if slamming someone because of their spell-check is the best you can do, then stay off your parent's computer and plant yourself in front of Sponge Bob and let the grown-ups talk. One day, you'll realize...

    Sorry if this is dumb, but what do you wear under a wetuit?

    Scubapro has a Hybrid short. I've worn mine for over a year now. My guests got tired of me stripping down to zero before putting on the wetsuit. And it became increasingly difficult to convince them the water was extremely cold when i had not yet been in.
