My wife and I will be heading to Bonaire (Capt Dons) at the end of Oct. We'll be doing out certification dives there with out instructor from here (Washington DC area). We bought fins/mask/booties/snorkel/bag, but will need to rent or buy BC, Reg, 3mm suits, dive computer.
i'd rather not rent up here and pack/lug them down there.
1. when you rent down there, do you keep all the gear for the week? or do you get new BC/Regs each day?
2. is the rental equipment in Bonaire ok quality/condition-wise? or should i rent them at my LDS?
3. if i rent a Regulator in Bonaire, and i purchased an air integrated computer here, is it a problem to ADD the wireless transmitter to the rented regs? would they normally have 2 HP ports?
anything else we need to pickup? i'd really like to have Seacure or Jax mouthpieces, but its probably only useful if we own our regs (size issues).
same ole questions.. which to buy, which to rent, etc. since i'm a gadget freak, i really want a computer (VT3).
thanks for any info!
