Anyone in the Panama City Beach area that can give me a condition report? We are thinking about heading to St. Andrews Saturday for a dive, but I was wondering how clear the Gulf has been in the PC area, especially at the jetties? We have had a mixture of conditions here in Fort Walton...
It has been a year and a half since I made my last dive which is the longest diving drought I have ever had. My dive buddy and I decided to make some early morning dives at the DestinEast Jetty. Thought I would post some surface shots and give a condition report in case someone was planning a...
Seas were forecast at 1-2 feet for Friday morning. Went with some buddies on the Miss Teak to dive a few Destin reefs. When we were heading for the pass we noticed Scuba Tech's boat was over at the bay cones.....Oh boy, that's not a good sign. Seas were running more in the 3-4 foot category...
Things have been pretty quiet in the DDD forum. I thought I would post a video from a week ago at Morrison Spring. A guy went in to my LDS looking to rent a video camera. They don't have cameras to rent, but they gave the guy my name. He came to my business and told me that he was looking to...
Just in case anyone is thinking about going to Morrison. We went by there this morning, Saturday February 12, 2011 and it is completely blown out. Forgot to take some pictures by the floating dock with the ramp is completely level. Normally it is hanging down a couple of feet. We ended going...
I know, we have all seen plenty of Morrison Spring pictures. I thought I would post a few pictures from our dive December 20, 2010 showing how low the water levels are. Temperatures that morning were in the low 40's

Here are a few pictures from our dive at Jackson Blue Springs Park in Marianna, FL. The divers in the picture are Walter(Wjefferis) Steel Tanks, and Jonathan (Mrmccoy) White Tanks.
This is a question about what some of you did when you went from diving wet to dry. I just got a dry suit and I already wear an XL paddle fin. I wear a size 12 shoe. With a converse tennis shoe only the top of my foot goes in the fins. This of course makes pulling the spring strap up almost...
Saw an interesting report on WEAR Channel 3 in Pensacola tonight. This is pretty good news if it all comes to pass and is done in the right way. Go to the link to see the video I have pasted the text of the story below the link.

I have been asked to share some information about the Florida Aquifer with some Gifted students in our local school. I am wondering if anyone has a presentation, or information you might have used with students in the past?
I have all the standard information from the internet, maps of...
Thought I would post this on a separate thread since it took me so long to get it done. Went to the Galapagos Islands in June 2010. Dove off of the liveaboard Deep Blue. I would highly recommend this yacht to anyone considering a Galapagos liveaboard. The boat, crew, food, and diving were...
I know this isn't about diving around here...but thought I would post a few pictures from my trip to the Galapagos Islands. The short story is we spent seven full days diving aboard the Deep Blue Liveaboard Yacht. If you ever do a live aboard in the Galapagos...you should give these guys a...
I have had my Aeris Elite AI for over three years and have over 200 dives on it. All was working well. Today changed both batteries in the computer and the AI receiver. I cannot get the receiver and computer to sync. The computer blinks like it does when trying to find the pressure...but it...
Took the boat to Destin today. Thought I would post a few comments. There was no oil to be found in Destin today. The booms are still not fully deployed although they are staged and ready.
There are a couple of things to note. The whole Destin East Pass is a NO WAKE zone. From the...
Met mrmcoy at Fort Pickens for a Friday afternoon dive. High Tide was around 3:50 PM. We met at the parking area around 1:30 PM. I got there first and got a good parking spot over by the showers. It was a warm beautiful Florida summer day. I snapped a few pictures when I first arrived...
Went with the H2O Below on Saturday to dive the Oriskany. Weather was partly cloudy and seas were 1-3 feet. Seemed like there were more 3 footers then 1. We had a couple of sick divers on the trip that looked like they thought the waves were much bigger.
The H2O crew made for an easy and...
I went to Morrison Saturday morning to dial in my sidemount rig, and test my new flash in the cavern. I made it to Morrison around 8:30 AM. There was one group of divers already on site. Weather was cloudy and misting.
The basin was very milky from all the rain the day before. Silt had...
I was supposed to dive today but those plans got changed. I want to get wet somewhere Saturday. Anyone want to make a trip to Morrison tomorrow morning? I have a new strobe to play with in the cavern....I need someone to take pictures of. I am open for a different location if...
Denise, Kevin, and myself decided to make Good Friday a great Friday, and go diving. I will spare you all the details. Needless to say we had three great dives. On the first dive, I did not get many good pictures. I was trying some new camera settings and they didn't work out. Second dive I...
I have read a great deal about the settings that people use on their G10 cameras in open water. Any of you have experience with settings for a G10 when shooting in a cave? I have a G10, Ikelite housing, and dual DS-51 strobes. I have the TTL dual sync cord. I can use a focus light if needed...
