Even tho I like this board the best, I can't get enuff scuba news and stuff, I've noticed the web site for the scuba magazine has been down for a while... anyone know why??? :confused:

Actually Christi you are right!!!!! Yes I do remember cruise ships near La Ceiba now! I wuz diving the plane wreck and a cruise ship started its engines.... the knocking noise was more than I could take after awhile and I had to surface. Was the terminal that gaudy yellow/blue back then.... I...

Just came back from Cozumel not as a diver but as a cruise passenger on RCI Mariner of the Seas... docked at Yellow/Blue International pier by La Ceiba... wasn't there 3 yrs ago! So my question is..... can you still dive the airplane wreck off the docks!?!?!??!

Has anyone else had this problem? ...pulled out my Gold Core booties after winter storage and noted they made a cracking noise... huh!?! Looked at the soles and the gold coloured part of the sole seems to be a type of plastic that seems to have hardened, the black rubber part still...

Hi Dennis, Just curious where you are diving in Kap and what brought you to this town. The paper mill?? GM cold weather testing? Pretty tannic coloured water if I recall... Remi Lake, Clear Lake, ugh Kap River... the golf course!?!?!

Just got "Ghosts of the Abyss" on DVD. This is James Cameron's doc on diving the Titanic... even though it is all from submersibles and ROVs and no regs/cylinders involved not Canadian 'cept for Cameron, I think it is well worth viewing... kind of follows an IMAX style storyline. Got mine as Costco!

Hi, I have previously bought a Pivot 2 with a Suunto SK7 compass module. I was going to buy a second Pivot 2 but it came with a no-name black bezel compass - the floating dial is just marked "Italy". The Suunto module had a silver bezel and the floating part says Suunto. This black unit is...

No I called at the beginning of the week and they were open. However Mike R seems to have parted ways with the shop.

Well if you have never done a small 6-pack (fast) boat you will be in for an experience. None of this giant-stride in and up a ladder business! You enter the water by putting your butt on the side and the weight of the cylinder will pull you in (back roll, hold on to your mask!). Exit is by...

Did anyone see the advert for the UK LED light (pistol grip) in Scuba Diving Mag? Apparently their is a retrofit kit for owners of C4 & C8 lights. One LED light source bright enough rival incandecent?? and at a higher (whiter) spectrum.... hmm this I gotta see!

I thought I read some time ago about HID light throwing out harmful UV light or something to that effect... can't find anything on search now. Is there truth to this or is it BS!?!?! I just splurged on a UK LC100! :)

Sounds just incredible BUT whipping thru a maze, dropping out at 110+ feet, reversing course, computers going into deco... isn't this a formula for DCS???

Thanks for all the replies!! It really helps! :)

Doing a little digging.. the chamber on Provo is still there? What island is Club Med on?

I'm looking at Club Med T&C for a vacation. Would you recommend its dive op or would other dive ops be a better alternate? Also is Nitrox available? Lastly is there a chamber for DCS available in T&C?? Thanks!

The LDS should have plenty as the plugs are taken out to assemble the regs. My LDS tossed a whole handful to me for free! :)

A preliminary review is available at: http://www.steves-digicams.com/2003_reviews/c5060.html For your viewing pleasure!:)

this link shows more views of the camera: http://www.steves-digicams.com/pr/olympus_09292003_c5060_pr.html Yes battery packs are proprietary but once you buy a spare there should be plenty of juice for any assignment. I juggle battery packs between my Canon G2 and 10D and love how fast I...
