hi everybody just certified

[DandyDon]

I missed you last week?

Andyway - Howdy!

And welcome to SB - the biggest, the best, the fastest growing, and the friendliest! If you'll simply click ScubaBoard.com above, you'll be taken to our long list of forums, a wealth of information and resources. My favorite is at the bottom: Singles Dive Club.

Completing your Profile with location and seperately - your Dive Info will help in future diving discussions. You can use the Quick Links menu above for this. Sizing a photo for your profile or Avatar can be a challenge; I'm a fumbling amateur, but I get the job done, if you'd like any help?

PM me if I can help you learn your way around; that is - click my username to the upper left, then follow the prompts to send me a "Personal Message."

waz up everybody just cert this weekend and had a blast, and brought back a couple of shells to comimberate my cert. looking forward to getting advise and hopefully giving out some also will be in hawaii next weekend to do some diving, any good spots to check out let me know

WELCOME to ScubaBoard!!
CONGRATULATIONS on joining the greatest and yet not the most expensive addiction on earth!!
I started greeting folks the day after you joined the board, so happy your intro came back for me to see.
Please fill out your profile.

Now for my stock message, which is still under construction:
This is a great place to meet people, talk about diving, and get information on just about any aspect of diving -or other subjects sometimes- that you can think of. Roaming through the forums is great help for me.
Now get wet with us and dive into the forums to ask questions, answer those that you can and even chat with folks about diving dreams and nightmares. ScubaBoard is a great place to spend your required Surface Intervals.
When you post a question, be as sure as you can that it's in the right forum or you'll probably find it moved.
The folks here are passionate about their diving, some about their specialty, so the reading can get very interesting, sometimes very hot.
Don't forget, if you haven't already done it, to fill out you profile as completely as reasonable, it'll save you being asked and having to repeat the information often.
Enjoy!

Tom

If you are looking for a great dive spot in the southern Caribbean you have to check out Curacao. It is part of the ABC islands (Aruba Bonaire Curacao) just off the north coast of South America. There are over 70 dive sites that offer everything from wreck dives to 10 foot mushroom corals to amazing wall dives where sheer cliffs of coral drop for 300 vertical feet. We have an abundance of sea life including giant turtles, 6 foot green moray eels, nurse sharks, rays, barricuda, and all the tropical fish you can imagine. At only 12 degrees above the equator the water temps are in the low 80 F and it is beach weather all year. We are well below the hurricane belt (except for Ivan which missed us by 30 miles) so the weather is pretty much concistant.

I moved here from New Brunswick, Canada the end of May and have been submersed ever since.

The island offers much more with a huge party night life and much to see and do from a cultural point of view.

PM me if you are interested in more specific info
