Hello from the mountains!

Hey everyone! I'm happy to be a new member here. I currently reside in the Asheville, NC area and sadly cannot dive the way I used to as a native Floridian. I'm going to be posting my collection of high quality gently used gear for sale in the classifieds soon. Any diver chicks out there needing some great like new gear?

Welcome to the forum. I live in weaverville, so we’re practically neighbors. Before you sell your gear, just note that there’s a 70’ deep fresh water quarry about an hour north called gray quarry. They sunk a bus, plane, and other cool stuff. Also, NC has amazing wrecks off the coast (I know, takes shorter time to drive to FL than the coast of NC from here).

I haven’t dove with any locals yet but there’s definitely a community that dives the quarry often.

Oh that's amazing thank you for letting me know! I appreciate the info.

I don't know what your tolerance for driving is, or whether you've been yet, but if you could handled a 6 1/2 hour drive to Morehead City, NC, there's some fine diving there. Morehead City, NC August 2015 - http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/no...us-dive-center-aug-9-13-2015-trip-report.html

Even if you go on to sell your gear and exit the hobby, it'd be a nice bon voyage.

Thanks for the insight drrich2! Even though I'm selling my unused gear, I'll always be a diver I haven't used it enough to justify keeping it, and I honestly want it to go to a good home where it'll be used lots.

Welcome to the group! I'm still new myself, I've been a lurker for sometime and I finally committed to joining a couple weeks ago. Again, welcome to the group.
