Dive on...from Pompano Pam

[Pompano Pam]

Hi, guys! I'm new to ScubaBoard and looking for other divers who love the sport just as much as I do...I'm ADDICTED ! I dive at least once a month and mostly dive off the central and southeast coast of Florida, I love to do reef photography, although I'm just learning how to get those really good shots. I really want to break into the spearfishing world and recently purchased a 42" AB Biller and a Mares Mini Mini, neither have been wet because I do not know any experienced spearfishing buddies ! I would like to change that...soon! Y'all holla!

Ok, 'nough said...

Welcome Pam! We have a really great group of divers here in Florida. Keep your eye on the Florida Conchs Forum for things going on around the state. I.m sure we'll run into each other at one of the get togethers.

Yaeg! All I have to say about your, uh, habit is...BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! :cool3: Pun intended there.

I look forward to checking out your pics. I've never had the desire to dive in ice, but I've also learned in life never say never!

Thanks for the post.

Dive on!

Hi Pam,

Welcome to the board! I used to live in Port St John and managed to dive about every month. My buddy and I would usually go to Boynton Beach and dive with Loggerhead charters. I miss those days.

Now I'm up in Everett, north of Seattle. We do a lot of shore diving here, and I get out once a week unless I'm helping with a dive class in the pool.

The diving here is different--green water instead of blue, water temps 43 - 57 F instead of 82 F.

Enjoy those warm Florida waters, and don't forget to check out the springs.

Hi, Ron! Wow, you moved to north of Seattle from PSJ! What a trek! I've dove off Boynton Beach, the M/V Castor.It was part of my AOW certification dives. I love the area down there...nice, warm water all year round.

What took you all the way up there?

Great to hear from you.

Holla.
