The U.S. Navy destroyer I served on was sold to Taiwan and after a full career was sunk as an artificial reef. The information I have puts it in 130' (39m) of water off the west coast of the Penghu Islands. I would love to locate it and dive on it. I am sailing around the world on my sailboat...

Hi, I'm looking for any info on diving in the Penghu Islands. Are there any shops or dive clubs around Magong? Best time of year/conditions etc etc. Thanks, Jim

When I took my basic course in 1970 nobody ever mentioned logging dives so I didn't. I only started about 10 years ago when my daughter got her cert. I have dived in many places around the world and it would be great to go back and read my comments from the early years. So I highly recommend...

I think you need to also consider the convenience factor. What's it worth to you not to have to drive to a dive shop for a fill. In my case, cruising on a sailboat, there are places I just wouldn't have been able to dive without the ability to fill my own tanks. I paid 3k for my unit but it's...

OK, back to square one. Nothing has worked yet. I see on the Uwatec website that they have listed several IrDa dongles that have been tested and work. Seems like one dongle would be the same as any other, I have tried two different ones so far to no avail. This is quite frustrating as I can not...

Thanks Guys, I tried all of the above and it still didn't work. I'm starting to believe that my laptop is the main problem. Jim

I have a gas powered Coltri Sub MCH 6 on my 46' sailboat. it is a pretty good unit and is sold in the USA as a Max Air 35. A 75' boat will more than likely have a generator big enough to handle an electric motor driven unit-that is a lot more convienient to deal with than a gas or diesel driven...

I can't get my dives transferred from the Smart Pro to my lap top. I keep getting the "not connected" message. I have updated Smart Trak to the latest version. Device manager says the IR dongle is working properly. A friends lap top will recognize the Smart Pro (but he doesn't have the Smart...
