The first taste is always free...

Looks like you were having such a great time!

Is it just me, or is it SO HARD to deal with a camera, light, and scooter at the same time? I swear, I've never really had that "oh crap, where's that third hand when you need it?!" feeling until I hit that combination. Nowadays, my camera is stowed away for most of the dive and I'm missing all sorts of shots I'd like to have captured (sea lions flying by, molas disappearing into the distance), etc.

I'm getting prepared for Christmas though...

Oh, come on, nobody survives their first scooter dive at Lobos unscathed . . . if nothing else, one's wallet shortly needs CPR!

If someone put up a roadside stand right outside Lobos with some scooters for sale I'm sure he would make at least 1 sale a week

Dive Xtras should do that. It'd be like having a crack stand outside a rehab clinic. Pure profit.

What ever happened to those scooters/impellers you attached to your tank?

Alternatively, maybe someone with a zodiac could offer a taxi service.

:drooling: I'm going to stay strong and repeat this mantra, "half hour surface swims are fun...half hour surface swims are fun...."

You survived? It's the precious Lobos flora and fauna that survived!
