Going to Bonaire over xmas question on theft..unique situation

[Squirrelly G]

View attachment 484349 that's a great idea. Any idea if they sell a waterproof container. My lights are all still functional. We are staying at Buddy dive. Let's hook up and do a couple together

Salt Pier and Something Special are my two favorite sites. darook and I look forward to meeting you both!

I use a S3 case for chip keys, eyeglasses, anything that salt water would kill. Never had a leak down to 130'. Scuba Cases - Waterproof Watertight Cases buy at LeisurePro

You could use a small handgun lock box that has a cable to lock it down. You would put the cable around the seat posts and leave the lock box under the seat. Like this on Amazon:

Here is a recent thread on a similar subject:

Theft and Diabetes Gear

My thought was the same as darook - could you get by with 1 when out and about and leave 1 back in the room safe? In the event of Murphy arriving in any form (flood, theft, dropping in sand...) you have the other.

I may have one that will work for you if you want it. I have all kinds of dive lights in various levels of disrepair. I would suggest probably leaving one of your implants in your safe at BD and taking one with you so you can communicate between dives yet have a backup in case things go sideways. If you are interested I can dig around in my SCUBA cave and see what I come up with. I frequent Aquaventure in Maple Grove and could leave it there for you.

We should definitely get together for some dives at the end of the year. Bamboo Bali is a short walk from BD.

Thanks for the offer. I dug around and found an old 8 D cell light that I think will work perfectly.

I would get a small pelican case whick you can putkets & hearing aid in and clip to your BCD and bring UW with you along with some cash, all I leave in truck is t-shirt & sneakers. But Bonaire is alot safer than Curacao was there last May and trucks constantly getting broken into- 5 in my group alone.

I would use something that is bullet proof like

Diver Locator Satellite PLB Canister from HDVSEATEK.

Bit pricey at $100 for the canister but I bet those processors cost alot more.

Another alternative-
McMurdo Dive Canister

And another..
Diver Locator Satellite PLB Canister from HDVSEATEK.

I bought one of these and it's a solid piece of kit. It has the advantage of not being metallic, so no concerns about corrosion etc. Carrying it is a little tricky as it isn't tiny. There is a spot to attach a stainless split ring, so I used this to attack a bolt snap.

I think it was about $100 CDN, including shipping from Australia
