    Question Returning to Scuba

    Hey all!! I am making a return to diving this year after almost a 20 year break. Besides the usual refresher classes, getting the regs rebuilt, tanks hydo'd etc, I had to throw out my old BC. Genesis Recon 75 - I loved that BC, however mice, dry rot & time had other plans. Any suggestions on...

    Bodies of water/Bottom topography link

    Im not sure if everyone else has this link and I am the last to find it or if it is of some benefit to all. It lists bodies of water by town and bottom topography. The site is put up by the Mass Dept of Fish & Wildlife and im not sure how accurate it is but the lakes I have dove, seem to be...

    Laws on freshwater diving in MASS

    Very well put. I too was told about 2 years ago that, "If swimming is allowed, Diving is also." I have yet had the need to test the system and challange an environmental poloce officer on it because I dive in the most common conventional area's. I was at one time though, considering a certain...

    "Offroad" Tank Cart

    This is the perfect rig for Striper/blues fishing. Load it up though with 150lbs + of dive gear and it becomes difficult to move thru sand. The heavier the load, the more it digs into the sand because of the width of the tires. The rod holders become cup holders with the attatchment shown...

    "Offroad" Tank Cart

    The biggest problem I have found is that the closer you get to a "Functioning" cart, the farther away you get from being able to maneuver it thru the sand. Im not sure about others on the board but, 85% of the best sites I dive require a little hike or requires us to cross beach/sand. This makes...

    Your best bet is to talk to your LDS. They should be more than happy to help you get to the next level. If not, if possible, visit a couple of other shops. Its no different than when you went for your open water - you want to find a shop that you are comfortable with. This is important as you...

    I seem to be experiencing the same problem........ But in all fairness, it may be my fault. I recently changed some reoccuring bills to another account. Maybe I dropped it somehow.
