    Neoprene sleeve protector for wrist computer

    I'm looking for a neoprene sleeve to go over the wrist on my wetsuit and dive computer. I know they are available in Europe and on websites based out of Europe, but haven't been able to find anyone that ships to the US. Basically it slips on and there is a hole cut into the neoprene where the...

    Anyone want to dive Spanish Rocks?

    I now this is a really old post, but wondering if anyone has dove this site recently. My hubby and I moved to Punta Gorda a year ago and have been checking out some west coast shore dives around Venice -- now want to loof for some others. Is this area still diveable? Worth it as a "get by"...

    Glue Sealife strobe arm????

    Another question....now that I have the arm fixed (just a tad bit shorter), I'm wondering about sealing the top edge of the neoprene tube that covers the loc-line. Should I seal it with a cement of some sort to prevent sea water from getting down into the arm? Like the loc-line filling up with...

    Glue Sealife strobe arm????

    Thanks! That was super helpful. I was able to get it taken all apart. The very top section of the loc-line stuff had a crack in it where it attached to the flash housing. Basically, I took out the broken section with my hubby's help, and the arm is just a bit shorter than it was. Its still...

    Glue Sealife strobe arm????

    I'm just getting back into photography after the whole Covid-not-diving-much thing. I pulled out my camera and the stobe light section literally fell loose from the padded flexible arm area. The wires are intact, and I can tuck the padded area up whee it belongs but it isn't secure enough to...

    Do you need a dive flag for shore diving?

    That is so interesting! On Saturday, my hubby and I went shore diving in Venice, FL, looking for shark teeth and generally messing around. We had our dive flag with us as we were surface swimming out. I saw this boat coming toward us and commented to my husband about the jerk obviously not...

    SW diving???

    We're new to SW Florida and are hoping to find some spots to shore dive without a trip to the east side reefs. I saw an old thread about diving in state parks and noticed that there were three mentions of Boca Grande, which is fairly close. We're in Punta Gorda. Have any of you dove there...

    Understanding LBTS surf reports

    Awesome feedback! Thanks so much! It says it will be more offshore, so its definitely worth the trip, even if the air temp is sorta cold.

    Understanding LBTS surf reports

    My husband and I have moved to the west side of Florida, and want to get some shore dives in this weekend over at LBTS. I've been watching the surf report, and the sea looks flat or up to a foot or so. But the wind is still fairly strong, in the teens on Saturday, less on Sunday. So I'm...

    Conditions at Lauderdale by the Sea post hurricane

    Any updates on the conditions in Fort Lauderdale? I had hoped to do some shore diving at Lauderdale by the Sea in mid-November when I'm down there. I'd appreciate any feedback anyone can give. Thanks!

    how long is air good?

    I've got 4 tanks full of air, filled two years ago. I thought I'd do some local diving but ended up doing a bunch of traveling instead. So there they sit. Can anyone tell me if the air in those tanks will still be "good"? I want to take a quick couple local dives this weekend. Thanks!

    Thermalution vs new seals,service on drysuit

    I'm going diving in the Pacific and am told that average temps in that locale are 65-66. WAY to cold for me in my 7 mm! I have a DUI drysuit that needs a new neck seal and wrist seals, and needs the inflation valve serviced too, since its been several years since I've used it (I just don't...

    legless front zip wetsuit

    My favorite exposure suit is a legless, longsleeved, front-zip, heavy neoprene suit, but it is literally starting to fall apart. I think it must have been a 5 mm when it was new, but I bought it used so am not sure. I wear it over a lycra bodysuit style thing. Anyway, I'm posting because I...

    Current water temps in Cozumel

    Thank you judydivescoz. I have found a big difference between the 78 and the 82, which is the range for Feb-March. And I've gone places when the "average" wasn't even close to what was happening in that particular year/season. It is so much more helpful to have a specific temp from someone...

    Current water temps in Cozumel

    I'm leaving for Cozumel in 4 days and trying to decide on which wetsuit to take. I get cold very easily so this is a big deal for me. Please, someone that is diving down there, post what you are getting for water temps the last day or two. Thank you!!!!
