    Is SI Tech the go to for exhaust valves?

    Alright. USIA can through with the valve and port gasket. So kudos to them. I have the port gasket installed and it is at a glance substantially better than the apeks. My last question is do you guys apply a sealant on these or is the gasket good to go. I am referring to the interface of the...

    WTB: Deep 6 Eddy Flippers in White (XL)

    I just ordered a set in light blue in XL and got them today. They aren't white but they are a light color and only $99.

    "Flippers, goggles, oxygen tank" -- cringeworthy, or useful??

    My mother and I got certified together when I was 14 back in 1991. I realize now of course that it was for me. Maybe 8 years ago we went to Florida and my mother came along. She had never really taken up diving like my wife and I eventually did but she did some warm ups and we went to the keys...

    Deep 6 Eddy Fin - Review

    Ugh, I am about to order a set and I am right on the cusp of large vs XL. I even talked to them on the phone and I am still on the fence. I wear a 10 shoe but I am looking to use these with rock boots. I am thinking XL is the way to go?

    Is SI Tech the go to for exhaust valves?

    I love the idea of the contaminated water valve. However it may have to come at a later date as I can find none in America and it looks like delivery times are a month or more. I will be doing the work myself so I just need the parts.

    Is SI Tech the go to for exhaust valves?

    OK, so I have reassembled the valve after cleaning it. Apparently I only thought I broke it as it is fine in that respect. It wasn't very dirty to be honest which leads me to have even less faith in the valve itself. My suit is a 2006 which I don't know would have the old style or new on the...

    Is SI Tech the go to for exhaust valves?

    So additional question...will the SITech drop right in? I have the Apeks low profile now. Is the opening bigger?

    Is SI Tech the go to for exhaust valves?

    Well, I was going to. However while searching I found several recommendations for SI Tech and them being the best. As Michael-Fisch said they apparently stay really dry. My DUI was definitely leaking a bit. But there isn’t much info out there either way say I thought I would ask before I...

    Can I dive this wreck on the English Channel?

    No worries. I have been to Ireland multiple times and I am going again this September. Driving isn't an issue even when everything is "correct". As well my part of America is narrow and winding though I will admit Ireland has even us beat for narrow. I ride a bike year round but she is a fair...

    Can I dive this wreck on the English Channel?

    Oh, it will be dry diving for sure! Normandy would be pretty cool. But this I think would be specifically for the Nashaba then let my wife enjoy Belgium. We are dying to get to Scotland as well as England too though. I really want to do them by motorcycle but I am sure we will end up...

    $115. Dive Rite XT Fins, Size Large, Free shipping

    Ah' thanks. Way too big for me which is a surprise. I just assumed a large would be closer to my size. Thanks again.

    Can I dive this wreck on the English Channel?

    Thanks, I cross posted on the Western Europe page after coming to the same conclusion as you. It probably is smashed and its also a boring wreck no doubt. However, my Grandfather was on that ship when it struck the mine and sank. He told me the story a few times and I think it would be amazing...

    Can I dive this wreck off the coast of Belgium?

    Thanks for the info and the leads. I know its a strange wreck to want to see and not a very exciting one. However, my grandfather was attached to that ship in the US Navy when it struck a mine and sank. How cool would it be to dive down and place my hands on a railing his hands also touched or...

    Can I dive this wreck off the coast of Belgium?

    And assuming there is no legal reason I can't then how do I get started getting there such as charters and what not? What charters should I contact? https://wrecksite.eu/wreck.aspx?225 Thanks

    And assuming there is no legal reason I can't then how do I get started getting there such as charters and what not? Would I be better going from Belgium? https://wrecksite.eu/wreck.aspx?225 Thanks

    What I recently saw in Bonaire was shocking...

    Well Hell...I put my mask on my head, my full foot fins are split fins, and I only dive a snorkel with students. But worse than all of that is the fact I have been to Bonaire three times and have never seen any topless nieces!
