Lost mask and snorkel at Redondo Beach Vets Park

[Hatul]

Coming out of a night dive Friday a wave knocked my mask off my face. If anyone finds it please let me know. The mask is a black XS Scuba Z Duo M Line with bifocal lenses, and the snorkel is an Aqualung Impulse 3. Thanks.

The Vets Park sea monster had claimed another victim.

Thanks. Did that, in fact I'm a member there as well.

It taught me to put my hand on the mask when the wave comes.

Or you can make a little lanyard that clips to both the mask strap and the BC's D-ring.

Don't lose all hope. The Redondo Gear Monster took my prescription mask one day and gave it back a few days later. An instructor found it and returned it to me.

Best of luck!

Yes, that's an idea someone else mentioned. I may try that.

Or put it on under your hood like some cave divers do.

That won't work with a snorkel for shore diving.

A sure way to keep your mask until it wears completely out is keep it around your neck, until your all the way past the surf, and from that point don't ever take it off over your head, to look through it or wash it or anything, because you might drop it. Only slide it up and then pull the strap up. Just the other day for the first time I got out and someone was squeezing out anitfog (in the water) and I took off the mask to get some, seems safe, but it's a way to loose a mask, do it on shore! Even jumping off boats, leave it around your neck, you're you'll keep it for a long time!
