The batteries in our dive watches have died, so we are looking for a place to get them replaced. We have gotten some referrals, but the places are either out of business, never open, or no longer does repair work. Anyone out there have a go-to place in the Sarasora-ish area?

The hubby and I were diving up at Ginnie this past weekend and stopped into Extreme Exposure. We needed a crotch strap for my soon-to-be completed doubles rig and we saw the new adjustable harness. It looks tempting, but I am just not sure I want to hand over $99 just yet. I like the fact I...

I arrive home from work today happy to find a package on my doorstep. I open it to find my new first and second stages for the doubles set I am putting together. While admiring how shiny and scratch-free they are, I started thinking back to when my husband and I first got certified 2 1/2 years...

I am taking GUE Fundies in August with my husband up in High Springs, FL. I've been switching all my gear over to a DIR set-up. I love the BP/W, but I am still getting used to it. Wearing a weight belt is a pain, but I am dropping more and more weight. In my jacket BC, I was wearing 10-14...

We heard reports going back to July 3rd that there was a whale shark hanging out at the Fin Barge. It was just spotted again by a friend of ours the other day and I must say I am jealous! Hopefully it hangs out until hubby and I get a chance to do some gulf diving. SiestaKey.com - Siesta Key...

Found these articles online. It paints a great picture of a student going thru OW. The obstacle course sounds fun. The second article about the OW dive is great. It's funny how OW students miss seeing so many things on their check out dives. Happy diving! Scuba diving: Learning to breathe...

Saturday morning, hubby and I were in the Keys diving the Bibb. We had never dove this site before and prior to this our max depth was about 92 feet. We were excited about this dive since we had planned to hit 100' for the first time. My hubby was the leader on the dive, but I went down the...

I have a steel backplate but not sure which wing I want to commit to. This past weekend I tried HOG's 32lb singles wing HOG 32 lb Wing for Single Cylinder Diving and a Dive Rite Venture wing Dive-Rite Venture Wings (45 Lbs. lift) # 2077). They both have features I like about them, especially...

I am a transplanted Houstonian living in Florida. Since my last visit home I started diving and was wondering what are some good dive sites within 2-3 hours drive from west Houston. My husband and I are looking to visit in the first half of next year and wanted to start researching sites now. We...

I just found this sub-forum and thought I would relay a belated thanks. I had bought my Genesis Athena BC (which I totally love by the way!) in June 2007 at the scuba sale at Bill Jackson's in Pinellas, FL. This past June, we were assisting with the beach dives with a group of OW students when I...
