If you want a real deal on a Hydro X, I have a used one for sale. This deal is for REAL from a Scubaboard Business Sponsor! FYI, it will be quite a bit more than $92 :wink:.

It looks like KAYAK works to book Batik air with a US credit card. Does anyone have any experience?

Excellent trip report! Good Luck & Keep Diving :cool:

Excellent trip report! Glad to heard you were able to get your SCUBA fix. Also, happy to see the reef is still in good shape. You should have been underwater more and you wouldn't have heard the music:afro:.

Did the port open today, Tuesday, Nov. 11?

We just stayed at Secrets Aura and dove with Dive House the last week of October. We had a Norte fighting hurricane Zeta. Zeta won causing port closures. Yet Dive House worked very hard with us to get all our dives in which included two incredible night dives! The staff at Secrets was...

How do you figure 6 closures? Was it actually closed Nov.8 or just a hassle with the bicycle race? Is it closed today, November 10?

We are in Cozumel. I am enjoying the rain. It has been very dry back home. Pura Vida!

I just put the quote in Google. You are correct. Buddy Dive is the only dive resort in the whole world that has this " No AIR 2 or Long hose Rule ". Also, this Scubaboard thread made Google. :cool:

Great news! Thanks for your report.

Nu komt de aap uit de mouw – Now the monkey comes out of the sleeve! I never mentioned the dive resort or the destination. Isn't it funny that someone could track the resort down from all of the dive resorts in the world? How did they find the one resort in the world from just my post? "...

I always dive with a pony or redundant independent air source. I believe everyone should. Perhaps one of the positives derived from this crisis, would be that a " New Normal Higher Standard " is achieved. Every diver must have a redundant independent air source.

Taking my last group trip to Bonaire as an example, we had ZERO ( 0% ) OOA occurrences X Covid-19 in either donor or recipient. Using the present global numbers, there are 6.2 million case out of a global population of 7.8 billion. 6.2 million / 7.8 billion = 0.000794871795Then take my 0 OOA...

One of the interesting things about this thread is the lack of attention to this question: What percentage of your clients run out of air ( OOA) in a week of diving with you? None (0%), almost none ( .0001% ), very few ( .001%), many (.01%) and too many (.1%). I have been thinking back over 40...

I appreciate everyone that has added input to this thread, regardless of their viewpoint. Masha Danki!

I decided not to name the resort or destination, because I did not want to make this thread about one specific resort or destination. I do not want to be malicious or benevolent towards a specific resort or destination. I want this thread to be about rules that may be the result of the " New...

Perhaps, this Dutch saying explains it all: Doe maar Normaal, dan doe je al gek genoeg – Act normal, as that’s crazy enough

I appreciate you sharing this link. I have read the USA DAN info, but I hadn't seen this DAN Europe one. I found the 1 meter/3 foot distancing info interesting: The WHO (World Health Organization) recommends that people keep at least a 1 meter / 3 feet distance from each other. This also applies...

My perspective is a global one. As I mentioned, I am part Dutch ( 50% ). The Dutch have an open - minded free culture. Bonaire has been an icon of Diving Freedom, since Captain Don. You could get a cylinder and dive at any time day or night. You could dive the way you choose. I am shocked that...

This is an email that I sent to the dive manager of the resort: I understand that you are trying to do everything you can to mitigate the risks. Having just had another birthday, I am even further in the high risk group. I agree prudent & reasonable actions need to be taken. However, your AIR...
