Hi, I'll be in Venice Nov 23-27 and am scheduled to dive with Aristakat Charters Nov 23, 24 & 26. I believe Jamie needs a minimum of 3 to go out, so if anyone's interested, please sign up. If only one person is interested, I would even entertain splitting the cost of an extra person to go out...

Dang, another excuse to go buy some new toys.

Sure BP isn't involved?

I was really impressed with the show in its first year. You had about three rows of booths with a good mix of local shops, a couple of travel companies, resorts in the Caribbean, a few in the Pacific, the Flower Gardens and some manufacturers. Heck, Backscatter was there. Also the local UW...

We'll make the show, probably not the HH. Got to get a break from Nick Jr.

Thanks for all of the great recommendations. Wjefferis, we'll definitely look you up when we're in town.

We're planning on coming to Destin in late August for about a week. Any suggestions on some good dives within about an hour? So far I've come up with the Destin & Pensacola offshore sites, Morrrison Springs and Vortex Springs. Any great shore diving sites would also be appreciated.

I would propose that the instructor in question come out here on the forum and discuss his side of the story. Peerhaps it would clear up a lot of questions and speculation at a minimum.

I really think the shop will do what's right in this situation. They're good people. I'm not sure what was going on with the instructor and his help, but someone should have seen that a class was down, regardless of the platform, and had the students gear up after the group was out, so no...

Pretty sad way to go in 5 ft of water. I imagine there's a lot of ways to die with a hooka unit.

I've only been successful up to 512MB on the xd cards. Even 1GB xd was out of the question.

Thanks so much for all of the experienced knowledge. If going out to decent diving in NE FL is plus 10 miles out, then no thanks, too much of a pain when there's unpredictable weather. I've done a lot of ocean diving, seen some crazy current in Coz on the N & S tips and at some of the more...

Thanks for all of the info! I checked out the website for the GA dive shop, but it sounds like I need a serious alternative with the unpredictable April weather. Is Crystal River worth checking out for the Manatees? I know I'm really close to the best freshwater diving in the US but have no...

I will be in Jacksonville during the later part of April. What ocean diving is available there? After reviewing some posts, it seems the diving is mainly charter, to perhaps wrecks. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hey guys & gals, Stupid question, but are Jan & Feb decent months for diving in Anilao? Particularly, shore diving? I'm in between jobs and planning to make an impromptu trip in the next couple of weeks. What's the water temp? Mark

I had one thing to share regarding parking. Make sure that when you're parking on the city streets around the Comal that you pay attention to the signs regarding where you can park and how long and park in the direction of the lane of traffic you're in. The city gets a multitiude of...

Thanks for the best wishes & congrats Jason. We did this back in April and it was pretty much a month-long farce (false positives). So at least this time we're in a more relaxed state of mind, just see what happens. Foo, I could think of some more colorful ways of putting the matter, but...

Hey Ann - No, Leslie is doing the invitro thing next Tuesday so she's staying put at home. We've got three people - how about you guys? Maybe a merger would work out. Take care, Mark

We're looking for a few good people for our team for the cleanup. We've got a couple of veterans and would like to do this thing right, make a run for top honors and make some new scuba buddies. Any interested parties?

Foo, thanks for the compliment but I think that would be Bill who I buddied up with. Leslie's been working in NY all week and I've got to pick her up at DFW tomorrow, but maybe I can talk her in to coming out Sunday. Sorry to hear about your bud.
