    Whale encounter this weekend

    A few of us were on the Silver Prince this weekend, heading to Carmel for a couple of dives. We spotted a group of approaching humpbacks, and killed the engines as they approached. One of them apparently took an interest in the boat, as it spent the next 10 minutes or so breaching right off...

    Diving Christmas Eve

    Anyone interested? I can do north coast, though I'd prefer Monterey/Carmel (will have to leave earlier in the day if I do north coast). Fun diving, spear fishing, whatever. I'm just looking to get underwater. Cheers, Ben

    First Solo Dive

    Last Saturday (11/22/08) I found myself without a single dive buddy. Amazing. The excuses ran the gamut from sickness to a recent robbery (he was robbed, not the robber). I've been toying with the idea of soloing since I stepped into doubles, so I decided this was the perfect opportunity to give...

    Carpool/hotel in Monterey this weekend (6/21)

    Hey all, I was originally planning to head down to Monterey for Saturday diving this weekend, but am now thinking of diving Sunday as well. Anyone interested in splitting a room? I feel like I'm putting out an ad for an apartment roommate, but here goes- I'm a 29 year old male, don't smoke...

    Carpool/hotel in Monterey this weekend (6/14 - 6/15)

    Hey all! I'm thinking about heading down to Monterey this weekend, for a couple of days of diving. Anyone interested in carpooling or sharing a hotel room? I'm in San Jose, and am happy to drive. Oh, and I don't smell. :) Unless my p-valve leaks... PM or just respond to the thread if...

    Viking drysuit alterations

    So I've been coming to a grudging acceptance that my drysuit (Viking Extreme) is too big for me. It's my next equipment upgrade priority, so I'm starting to seriously consider two different options: replace, or alter the suit. Replacement is expensive, and to be honest, I'm kind of attached to...

If so, PM or respond to this post- I'll be checking it a few more times tonight, and continuously tomorrow. I'd post...

    Looking for a buddy this weekend?

    Hey all, Assuming I get my tanks back from VIP before COB Friday, I'm looking to do some Monterey diving this weekend. I'm pretty new to the area, so don't know many divers here yet. Anybody, or any group, looking to add one more to their party? I live in San Jose, and can be at the site...

    Lockheed scuba club

    Hey all, I just moved here from Colorado Springs. I'm working with Lockheed Martin, and was told by quite a few people to look up the Lockheed scuba club while I'm out here. I've looked around as much as I know how, but have not yet been able to find the club or anyone that knows anything...

    Anywhere NorCal Sept. 23

    Hey, I just moved to the area and am looking to get out diving this Sunday. Anyone else going that might not mind me tagging along? I'll be staying in Vallejo this weekend, but as I understand, diving prospects are much better south of the city, than north. As such, I'm game for anywhere from...

    Looking for a roommate, somewhere between Sunnyvale and San Leandro

    A few months ago, I posted that I'll be moving out to the bay area soon. I now have a job and an arrival date; next on my list is finding a place to live :) Basically, I'll be working in Sunnyvale while my girlfriend (Chris) attends school in Vellejo. Chris insists on living in Vallejo, so I'm...

    Flatirons Scuba, Broomfied CO

    Hey, I don't know if we're allowed to do things like this, but I don't see any indications against, and given the ratio of complaints to praises I generally see on the internet, I thought this post might be appropriate. A couple of weeks ago, I dropped in to Flatirons Scuba in Broomfield...

    Hello all!

    After lurking for about a month, I finally decided to join the board :) I live in Colorado, where I work as an engineer. I've been diving about 6 years, and just finished my DM. I'm looking forward to lots of trips to Blue Hole in the future! Actually, I love diving down there (at least, since...

    diving research in physics

    Hi! I've been reading the forums for about a month now, and have fallen in love with this site. I think you have a wonderful community here. This morning I broke down and decided to start an account. There goes my work week :shakehead Anyways, I've been trying to learn if/how Physics plays any...
