    Diving safely without a wetsuit

    I spent a week in Roatan in Sept. and never put on a wetsuit or skin, only shorts and a tshirt, and was fine UNTIL the one night dive. My arms got ate alive by jellies on the night dive. Even my friends wearing wetsuits got stung on their faces and hands on that night dive. You never know. I...

    Deaths at Eagles Nest - Homosassa FL

    This goes so far beyond negligent diving, especially for the father, than I have ever heard of.

    I like guns.

    I've shot one of those and it wasn't in a game. I'm guessing that the sound and recoil was a bit more intense that in "call of duty"

    I like guns.

    Agreed it was titiled "I like guns". This isn't about hunting, it's just about if you like guns. I have several more that aren't hunting firearms, although I have several of those. If someome had said "I like hunting guns", I would have posted a pic of a shotgun or a 7mm Mag. (all locked in...

    We are giving away a DUI Weight & Trim System

    I won't enter because I already have one, but I will say that it is a great system, especially if you need quite a bit of weight (drysuit or 7mil). Nice product.

    Did SSI just get bought out by Mares?

    This is disturbing. Training agencies and gear manufactures have no business intermingling. Agencies teach diving, I think that we can all agree that there is more than one quality brand of gear. I dive mostly Oceanic for recreational diving. I dive mostly Scubapro and Dive Right for tech...

    I like guns.

    Zombies or tyrants, beware. If you have more rounds than me, you had better be a diver or damn good at holding your breath, because I'm going underwater for a while. Yes, that is a fully loaded Beta-mag and their are 2 sighting systems on the top of that "evil black gun".

    We might stop diving

    I can't fathom giving up diving due to someone else's incident. When it is my time to go, I will go, be it doing a deco dive, with tri-mix, and a drysuit or driving to work on my 3 mile commute. Personally, I think the stress of my job will be the death on me. While diving, I am relieving...

    What is this from the Gulf of Mexico???

    A fisherman friend of mine caught this on accident and released it but has no clue what it is. I've never seen one underwater and have no clue. It was caught in the Gulf near Gluf Shores. Can someone tell me, so that I can tell him? Please don't flog me. I would rather see it underwater...

    HOG drysuit?

    I'm happy with the one that I bought from the guy that posted above me. (hey Jim) It is a little liberal in sizing but I wanted plenty of room for cold water undergarments. I don't see why slightly large is an issue. The actual size of the suit, in the water, is controlled by the undergarment...

    After the No-See-Ums bite you... what then?

    They didn't even itch while I was in Roatan. After week a week at home, they itch like a SOB. Oh well, it was worth it. Everytime I scratch, it remindes me of a good vacation. Just a different way of looking at it.

    Turquoise Bay Resort

    I just got back from there Saturday night. I spent a week there and was very happy to the resort and its staff. They went above and beyond my expectations. The room was clean, the food was GREAT, and the staff worked hard to make sure that we had anything that we wanted. The AC in the room was...

    First trip to Roatan

    So do I. I'll see you there. Look for a short heavy-set mid-40's guy, with short hair, and give me a shout. I'll keep my ears open for a Jersey accent.

    First trip to Roatan

    I would love to join one of the "Invasion's" but I own a small business. My time off is VERY rare and has to be planned around our slow times and well in advance. Maybe one of these days, I'll be able to join one. Until then, I'll dive in a cold quarry and take a trip to warm water when I get...

    First trip to Roatan

    I'm heading to Roatan for the first time in a week, so I'm watching this thread close. Personally, I hope to see a few sharks. I love them. So, there is little chance of seeing them, unless I take a shark dive? I'm kind of against shark dives, I like to see them naturally. Any comments...

    Local Gear for SALE!

    Thanks Chris. I have a couple of those. I was looking for a way to bolt on some weight to my plate without cluttering up my belt any worse.

    Local Gear for SALE!

    Chris, are the weight pockets to kind that bolt to the backplate and have ditchable pockets? If so, would you consider shipping them with no lead?

    Zombie Scuba Cert? Really?!?

    As much as I enjoy diving, I think I'll stick with this: Zombie Max - Hornady Manufacturing, Inc

    State of Kentucky has filed against DEPP (Divers Equipment Protection Policy)

    Wow, talk about catching my interest as both an insurance agency owner and a diver. I'll see what I can find on the KY-DOI site as both an individual and signed in as a licensed agent.
