Hi all you South East Florida Divers. I am moving to Boynton Beach next week and I am looking for some direction if you don't mind. I am also looking for dive buddies in the area. What are the good active clubs that dive locally a fair amount? I will have a lot of time to dive for while until I...

Wife and I are checking out Tampa area for possible relocate. (sorry yet another northerner :shocked2:) Found 2 charters that look good at least for weekend of Dec 15,16. Tanks a Lot and Blue Water Explorers. I just want to see what diving the Tampa area is like. Going to be solo and probably...

OK I apologize, I know threads of this type have been done many times before but I hope to get a little up to date information if possible especially from those pros out there in the industry. I want to become a professional level scuba technician. I have some idea what this involves having read...

I am looking for suggestions. I am still trying to get my GUE fundamentals tech pass after a year. My biggest problem like most people is not good enough buoyancy control. I train in full tech gear with steel doubles, drysuit, can light etc in 20 ft of water with normally very bad vis. When I am...

Hi all, I would really like to hear from D1 users who dive technical depths around 300 ft. If you do this and can share your opinion that would be great. I am a tech wanabe planning to take a lot of tech training this fall and winter and I really like the features and price of the D1 but saving...

Hi everyone, there is a lot of good information here on how to become a captain academically but I can't find much about how somebody who is starting out with no experience like myself would learn to safely pilot or even function as a deckhand for a small < 50ft dive boat in near coastal waters...

Hi Florida divers. I plan to dive down in Key Largo in March 20 - 22 but unfortunately I have no buddy. This is my first time diving in the keys and I don't really know what to expect if I show up by myself at the shop and tell them I want to go dive. I don't want or need to pay for a DM to go...

Anybody been to the blue hold lately and know if they actually opened the dive center so there is warm place to go between dives? Chatfield is starting to get chilly and and I suspect I will spending time down near BH soon. The dive center looks so nice they just never seem to finish and open it.

Hi, hope this is not a repeat of a frequent question but did not see anything exactly like this. I took a GUE fundamentals course this spring and and have been practicing SMB deployment but I still stink at it. I can't get enough air orally into the SMB at any depth to do a solid deploy. I...

Sorry for the really basic question but does anyone know how to safely remove and replace a light monkey lens? I was told by Light Money to do this in order to clear up a moisture issue in the lens but I don't know how to remove and replace the o-ring without ruining it. This is actually a...

Hi I am posting this here because it probably has a better shot at reaching it's intended audience here then anywhere else on the board. I am looking for somebody who wants to start tech or is already in tech and doesn't mind being a buddy with a complete tech newbie who has not yet passed GUE...

Hi, I got a 350 with neck zip seals and I have an issue where the ring that holds the zip seal is starting to separate at the edges. There is s 4 inch or so area at the edge of the innermost rubber ring where the ring has pulled away from the suit and is no longer attached to the outer ring if...

I want to dive the keys this fall for about a week, probably Key Largo from what I have heard and read. I am going by myself, Wife doesn't dive and dive buddies are not working out. Schedule is very flexible for the most part with a week or 2 notice. I am looking to buddy up before I get down...

test hello

Hi I just bought a Dacor Viper 1rst stage off EBAY primarily to learn rebuilding with. It's almost a shame for a rookie like me to be messing with this reg since it is absolutely beautiful with not a scratch on it but anyway. It appears there may be multiple models of the viper. I can't find any...

I had my XR2 downloading at one point for one dive but since I tried it again I get nothing but timeouts. From what I read this seems to be a weakness in Aeris dive computer line. The pins on the cable are fairly loose and I wonder if it has broken connection internally. I have tried multiple...
