Hello from Belgium

[f-d-m]

Hello to the Community,
I'm from Belgium, aged 65, recreational diver.
Started diving ~20 years ago, now 550 dives.
Currently water is 6 - 7°C in our usual Belgian quarries.

Happy to share my experience about the good old Scubapro Galileo Sol and its antique infrared transmitter - a post will follow soon.

Welcome. I'm guessing you do some travel diving, not just the local quarries?

Richard.

Welcome to SB! Do you dive in the Schelde or only quarries?

Welcome to BS! Belgium is where I got my feet wet scuba diving. Now diving in the New York area. Same cold and dark waters.

Welcome! 6 - 7°C sounds horrible，my coldest dive is 13°C with 1.5mm+7mm wetsuit and my hands almost numb...
