You might want to contact the Sportsco Dive shop in Springdale: Home I was in Bentonville a couple weeks ago for my niece's graduation, we rented a boat and spent the day on Beaver Lake. I stopped by Sportsco and bought a map of Beaver Lake. It does not have dive sites marked on it, but...

I use a Vyper and a Gekko, I download both to my Mac computer using the same cable, and the MacDive software: http:/thedoorisajar.org/macdive/ Perhaps someone else can advise if there is a similar PC compatible program that will permit downloading from the Gekko.

I have been out with both operations. The September 2006 trip to the Sherman was my first ocean/wreck dive. We had a good time despite some rough conditions (4-5') and relatively poor visibility (10-12'). Coastal's boat was on the small side and a little rough around the edges. They also...

We did three days of diving with Silent World in November of 2007. While I have to say I find dasalomon's description of the shop experience at Silent World familiar, I had a different experience with Capt. Bob. We had him for two of our three days and found him to be friendly and helpful, in...

leoconor, I'm in the same boat (have an A620, thinking about a G10, not ready to jump in just yet with the D80 - mentally or financially). I've been looking for something like the Canon S2IS I had. It had a dedicated video button that allowed you to instantly switch from still mode. However...

I ordered the Dive Rite Aluminum Backplate/Hog Harness specials on the 25th, got it today. Very quick service and shipping (particularly considering you didn't charge for it). I was impressed with the immediate email communication. I just placed an order for an OMS O2 analyzer, prices are great!

Debbie, what is the general condtion of the structure? I haven't watched everything on your site yet, but what from what I've seen its difficult to get a sense of it. Does what is left consist mainly of the frame, or does some or all of the siding and roof remain intact?

I have two, wouldn't want to dive without it. For me, it significantly reduced the jaw fatigue I was experiencing.

Thanks Debbie, that's very cool! I will definitely tune in. When was it filmed?

Thanks, it would have surprised me if if wasn't someone who was on SB. I'll send her a pm and see if she can give us some more information. I look forward to seeing the story.

I've never watched the show before, but I saw a promo for 'News To Me' on CNN and there was a teaser for a story on a woman trying to locate her family home in what is now Lake Jocassee. The teaser show dive footage, including the cemetary and submerged trees, and promises "a miraculous...

I always take the gear into the shower/tub with me, as soon as we get back to the room. Everything gets a good rinse, then I hang up the wetsuits inside out - that way even if everything doesn't dry out 100 percent, I'm not putting on damp neoprene next to my skin early in the morning. Regs...

PM sent on Apeks

"The only reason we are doing this is just to see DiveQuest. We probably not going to dive anywhere else." The aquarium in Atlanta has opened up for divers, so now there's a chance to do an aquarium dive with a whale shark. As cool as the Epcot dive is (we did it last month), I would not...

We did a three day, six dive package with Silent World last November. Like Vondo, I found the reception at the shop to be on the cool side. Not rude, just not overly enthusiastic or chatty. We signed our paperwork, got our weights, etc. the day before the first dive. We stayed in Tavernier...

I was not impressed with Divers Supply or Divers Outlet in Florida City, both had sparse inventory and less than enthusiastic staff. Divers Direct in both Florida City and Key Largo had a nice selection of gear and the sales lady at the Florida City location was particularly friendly. That...

As has been posted in other threads, the Holiday Inn is a little dated, but has been kept up pretty well. I would stay there again. Various travel site reviews advised to avoid the hotel restaurant. We ate breakfast in the hotel (part of the Sea Dwellers package), nothing to rave about, but...

Just got back from four days in Key Largo, 2-4 foot seas, stiff current, strong surge, and visibility ranging from 10 to 50'. Oh well, at least the water was warm and the fish plentiful. Got to see (some) of the Benwood, French Reef, Molasses Reef, and a couple others. The wife dove on her...

We just returned from Key Largo, and stopped in Crystal River along the way to do a manatee snorkeling tour, it was kind of a last minute add on. I hadn't seen this thread, and for better or worse we ended up at American Pro (I would have avoided them on the basis of this thread alone, but...
