    Aladin Prime - infrared data transfer

    I like it. It does everything I need, and is one of the less expensive models. It's easy to use and easy to read. That being said, the IR port died after ~ 20 months. But - Scubapro gave me a new one.

    Grand Cayman Dive Guides

    I was there last July. I dove with DiveTech and Ocean Frontiers. DiveTech is a fairly large, but high quality operation. They also picked me up each day at my condo on SMB. The East End diving (Ocean Frontiers) was more spectacular, but the surf was rougher. When I was there, we dove in ~ 6 foot...

    Do you need cave cert. to dive the Cenotes ?

    I dove the cenotes about 2 years ago. Very cool. Mexico appears to regulate the process quite closely. Dead tourists are bad for business. As I understand it, guides have to be licensed by the state, can lead a group of no more than 4 divers, carry an extra tank and reel. They used 1/3 in...

    Diving in the Grand Cayman Islands

    I beleive RedSail Sports is on the beach across from the Westin. Actually, I think it's in the Hyatt. They've gotten mixed reviews. There was some discussion that RedSail was using smaller tanks to ensure shorter dives. Both Divetech and OCean Frontiers supplied AL80s.

    Diving in the Grand Cayman Islands

    I went through the AOW with DiveTech in Grand Cayman this past June. They worked it into 3 days of diving. It was a half day of classroom and then 5 dives. The navigation and bouyancy control were done right off their pier. They tried to make it worthwhile, providing tips and suggestions that...

    Aladin Prime Uncommunicative

    Many PCs will have the IR port disabled as part of the standard config. Often, one needs to enable the IR port in the BIOS set-up.
