    Poseidon Xstream free flow

    I'm one of the XStream users and have never had a free-flow problem under normal conditions (and a majority of my fresh-water dives have a low temp of about 40˚F/5˚C). However, I will confirm that the design of the 2nd stage will "free flow" when the tank has less than the IP of the...

    Great Lakes Wrecking Crew 14th Semi-Annual Meet and Greet April 23rd-25th

    Since I had to go back two pages to find this, I figured it was time to repeat and add mine to the list. -rab Luckydays [/SIZE] – Chicken Soup, Canopy for coverage and probably a propane heater if it is cold. jwalko - Lots of sweet Italian sausage, sweet peppers and hoagie...

    Great Lakes Wrecking Crew 14th Semi-Annual Meet and Greet April 23rd-25th

    I'll go ahead and take one of those spots for Friday night. Is this the rooms above the office? (That's what I'm thinking as I believe the rooms/apt above the restrooms is the "apartment", right?) -Rob

    Great Lakes Wrecking Crew 14th Semi-Annual Meet and Greet April 23rd-25th

    Hey, it looks like I'll be leaving even earlier on Saturday than I'd planned. My son is not only going to prom :date:, but we've been secretly :ssst: informed that he'll be crowned the Prom King and that we have seats reserved at the pre-prom that begins at 4pm. So leaving at Noon will cut it a...

    Great Lakes Wrecking Crew 14th Semi-Annual Meet and Greet April 23rd-25th

    Hey, I'm definitely up for that. I've had a dive to the sump follow the North wall until the exit at the deep dock, but I've never started a dive from there. Anybody want to toss up a dive plan so we can all file something similar (i.e., THE SAME) when arriving Friday? I think my tanks have...

    Great Lakes Wrecking Crew 14th Semi-Annual Meet and Greet April 23rd-25th

    Hey, at this point I am planning to be there, but it will only be for Friday and Saturday until Noonish. My son's senior prom is Saturday and I want to get back for the pics. I'll have to go up a few posts and see what might still be needed for food. Any suggestions? (Or last-minute...

    Should Barracuda2 get a facebook?

    I think that Denny might cause the whole global warming concern to become moot if he were to make Hell Freeze Over by getting on Facebook.

    GLWC Fall Meet-n-Greet XXX

    OK, plans for this weekend have been changed. One car is temporarily out of commission and so the only one left can't go up to Gilboa for the M&G. I updated the list at the link above with PvtStash and Wolver and moved diver_paula below the sad "no longer coming" line (with kt_gobucks and...

    GLWC Fall Meet-n-Greet XXX

    This might help those who are still undecided on what to bring. http://biedenharn.us/GLWC-MG-2009-Oct.png It shows the breakdown by type (although splitting Lunch/Dinner is arbitrary and a guess at best). -Rob

    GLWC Fall Meet-n-Greet XXX

    Oh, I didn't see that Mitten already has the SIR covered. Looks like Ted has "some eggs and bacon". If that's not two breakfasts worth, I'll bring some to cover one breakfast, too. Randy can make them all, but I'll gladly help. barracuda2- kielbasa gtxl1200- bunkhouse, some eggs and bacon...

    GLWC Fall Meet-n-Greet XXX

    I hope you mean the green 3.5# weights ;-) I'll have my own dry suit so you must be forgetting someone else that was interested in yours. Since KT has dropped out, I'll bring SIR fixins, but someone else will have to do the poppers. I just hope this cold clears up enough for me to do some...

    GLWC Fall Meet-n-Greet XXX

    Well, it's probably about time that I showed up on this thread. I am planning to be there for the weekend. I picked up some propane canisters just a few weeks after the Spring M&G and those will certainly be coming with me. I think I read 3-4 pages of posts so I was a little behind. I can...

    Any Ohio divers here?

    Oh, yeah, there's a bunch of us. If you want to dive Oct.9-11, take a look at the Meet & Greet XXX thread stickied at the top of the forum. You can find all sorts of threads about Ohio diving and divers. I've not been to the Circleville Twin Quarries, but you can head northwest and find Gilboa...

    Post Guinness Event Report as I experienced it

    While my original plan had been to arrive Friday and stay through Sunday, the rest of the universe conspired against that and I only made it up for Saturday and the dive itself. I ran into Ken (Notso_Ken) checking in and Ber shortly after who told me to get in her lane #3. Perhaps it was busy...

    Gilboa Summer Viz?

    A much better question is "How does the visibility change there between, say, Friday and Sunday?" Depending on where you go, the viz either doesn't change much (mostly the deep side where a dive plan must be filed at the office) or is affected by the presence of divers who are still working on...

    GLWC Fall Meet-n-Greet XXX

    Denny, you lost control at #7 (Ted's first post). I'm actually surprised that it held together as long as it did (but not surprised at how quickly it unravelled once it got started). It's on my calendar! I know I mentioned it once to part of the group, but if you're interested in a dive trip...

    That DiveCaddy carry on bag? any reviews?

    The DiveCaddy got a favorable mention in an article or sidebar in a recent Alert Diver magazine. For a liveaboard, you can probably use almost any kind of bag since you likely will set your gear up once and tuck the empty bag away under your berth (bed). Soft sides / duffle would just make the...
