the closest is the piarco International Hotel and Includes complementary shuttle from hotel. 1-868-669-3030 email piarcohotel@mailcity.com I have never stayed here but I know that Some of the airlines use this hotel/guest house. It makes sense the cost of a taxi to the capital city is...

for your own good do a refresher course. 15 years is a long time. All those manuals/tables are useless from 15 yrs ago. Worse still you could be a liability to your buddy.

I believe its closer to 500 feet World Free-Diving Record Attempts Check out the transcript from our live Webcast from Cabo San Lucas, Baja, Mexico Pipin Ferreras and Audrey Mestre broke two free-diving world records on June 6, 1998: Current Record Attempt Tandem dive 90m (295ft)...

From what I read in a late 1980s PADI magazine was that anytime you buddy is not within x distance or far away enough that they cannot render immediate assisstance you are in effect diving solo. This is an interesting thought and gets aaway from the buddy complacency factor.

Sorry to say we have some of the worst dive masters here in the Caribbean. Thank goodness for the instructors. Often the DM is a glorified OW diver. When I asked an instructor the other day but XXX dive shop we will be diving with lost 3 divers in 1998 he mentions well the divemaster was...

I have made the following commentary on another board: No competition the APEKS is better by far in the breathing tests Ive seen plus its apparently also easy to service underwater. I think you should be comparing the APEKS to the Oceanic alpha/delta and Scubapro MK18. The mares equipment I...

Someone above wrote that 500 feet was long in cave diving. Recently I read about someone who went 3500 feet into a cave is n't that long?

They fit but look like ducks feet (I'm an 8 1/2). I'm going to get some laughs in the boat with these midget fins. By the way where can I buy the straps.

Hey Trinidad is ok Steel pan and limbo was invented here. And the food is real cosmoploitan as 44% of the population is of East Indian descent.

With so many cheap searguns out there why waste time making one , spend the time shooting the fish. Get a small 42" they are good for 10-15 lb of fish. Cost $39-99.

Just bought a used pair of Scubapro jetfins for $30 plus $8 postage, they are heavy black rubber fins and the previous owner duct taped the strap ends, why i do not know as the straps are not long and I do not believe they would dangle down. I did not realise they are so heavy and even though...

Thx, I like the boards and have 3 threads running now. Its good to be humble sometimes and even though I went straight from OW to AOW in 6 dives and from resort course several years ago to AOW in 1 1/2 months I have to remember I'm new to this. By the way just got my wetsuit its just right...

I thought was going to see the webpage of a great living legend then I saw the seaquest thing and realised Mike Nelson was a TV character!!! I had a good laugh it was the flip side of the Gary who thing. Thx

Congrats How do you get those icons in the body of the replies ??

yep you guys are right I am taking your advice i will not take wreck penetration until i bounce it again in this forum with many more dives under my belt.

Gary is arguably the most famous/leading wreck diver. He was a pioneer on the Andreas Dorias and has written several books on wreck diving. He also has a famous personality. Check these random links on Gary http://www.deepexplorers.com/seeker/crew.html...
