I purchased a Suunto Vyper (second-hand) as a backup for my Suunto D9. The D9 and transmitter are fine. Prior to a dive, the Vyper "pairs" with the transmitter correctly.. At the beginning of the dive the remaining "air time" reading is fine. But after 20 minutes into a dive, the remaining...

I'm travelling next week, arriving LAX, Terminal 6, but I need to get to Terminal B for a connecting flight. I've looked on-line at maps of LAX airport, and I find it very confusing. What is the least circuitous route for a (tired) senior :oops:to get from Terminal 6 Arrivals, to Terminal B...

I am travelling to Fiji in a week's time. I realize travellers have the option of purchasing "Fiji-Care insurance" for a modest fee. But has anyone travelled there recently with their own private travel insurance (not Fiji-Care)? How was this issue handled on checkin? How much detail is...

Good morning! I arrived Coz on Tuesday. On my 1st dive yesterday, my u/w UK "Aqualite" flashlight flooded. Back at the hotel I gave it a quick rinse with fresh water. The lithium-ion battery is likely toast, but I'm wondering if the flashlight housing can be saved. Any recommendations for a...

I arrived Coz on Sunday, Sept. 5. Today, Monday, I went for 2 dives. The 2nd dive was problematic in that the last 2 minutes while I was wrapping up a safety stop and doing a slow ascent to the surface, I experienced a very sharp pain in the upper left side of my mouth around a tooth and the...

Well, I've made 30+ trips to Coz over the years, but this is my 1st time planning a trip anywhere since Covid-19 descended on us. I'm doing the bag-drag via Cancun in September. I'm worried about understanding the ins and outs of required documentation for entry into Mexico. 1. Mexican...

I have no idea how to send a private message (PM) to another member. (So embarrassed to admit this). I was interested in a few items that were available for sale, but I am not certain how to communicate privately with the SB member. I'm an old fogey, and a techno-fossil..........but willing...

My 5 1/2 foot tall Halcyon DSMB has been a faithful friend over the years--it's been with me on 1600+ dives. The long, folded (not stitched) edge has developed small holes that leak air slowly. I am thinking I might slap some aqua seal on these holes, also considering applying aqua seal to...

I don't know if I have chosen the right forum for this post, so mods please re-direct if I have chosen incorrectly. It's been 12 very long months since I have been on a dive trip--I'm retired and often travel 4 or 5 times a year. My last adventures were Cozumel, Galapagos and the Red Sea (from...

I have traded in the world of work (I retired in April) for the world of diving! In August, I did 15 dives wherein I learned a great deal and had lots of laughs! In mid-Sept. I am off to Roatan for another adventure! I try to draw upon the advice, tips, and wisdom that are offered in web...
