My suggestion for great diving in the upper Keys is Conch Republic Divers. I've been diving with them for almost 4 years and have never had a problem with the operation or the crew. I just got back from a great vacation with them in early May. We dove the Speigel, the Duane, the Bibb and...

Check out the attached pic, Juv. Hope this helps. --Rick (Thats my Stinger next to my Citizen Promaster, on my wrist)

It's a dive watch and a dive computer. Barely bigger than most dive watches, I keep in on my wrist all the time. I've used a console setup for 3+ years now. I discovered it was a pain in the *ss to keep ones console in view while ascending / doing safety stops, etc. I've grown to love...

Or do I have the power?!?? :devious: --Rick

45-65 I use my 7mm 66-74 I use my 5mm 75-up I use my 3mm After a few days of diving in 75-79, I might switch to the 5mm. Although I hear many folks say that the gold core is warmer than the Hyperstretch, I experienced differently. Could be a few factors that influentced that, though...

I own both Gold Core and Hyperstretch suits. I find that the hypserstretch suits are easier to put on, more comfortable throughout the dive, and somewhat warmer than the Gold Core as well. Brand new Gold Core suits glide on and off easily, but as they age, the gold core inside starts to get...

I have 2 3mm, 1 5mm, 2 7mm suits. 3 of them are hyperstretch, 2 are gold core. I used to love the Gold Core suits, but I discovered that when they got wet, they became almost impossible to put back on. I got a hyperstretch and :out: WOW. The suit glides on, is much more confortable, and I...

I bought the Oceanic about 3 years ago and used ot for about 5 months. During that time, it served me great. The PC software was lacking at best. After 5 months, I was on a dive breathing nitrox at 28%. I set the computer to 28% and started the dive. After the dive was over, the computer...

Hey Juv, I lived in your beautiful country from 1968 - 1974 as a kid. I went back and visited it in 1984 after I graduated high school, but I was not a diver then. It was a wonderful visit. I went to Chiang Mai, Bankok and Pattya (sp?). I hope to go back next year and dive it. --Rick

Zero vis, crappy water, and way too many drunk bubbas in boats racing along at 60mph+. I prefer Pelham. Wayne & family run a great operation out there. Plenty of dock space even on the busiest days, too. I go out there every other week. Next weekend, Sunday is on the schedule. Any of...

Shouldn't this thread be titled "Jawja Divuhs"??!?! :D --Rick

Sawadee Juv! --Rick

What do I gotta do? Huh? :confused: --Rick

Thanks again for the warm welcome. Kell, I'm in Sandy Springs. Inside the P, Just north of Buckhead. Bobb, no quarries in Georgia that I know of. I drive to Birmingham, (Pelham actually) and dive at Alabama Blue Water quarry. From Atlanta it's only about a 2 hour drive. He's got a...

and the thing is built like a tank. I love this computer. If you were confy with the Monsquito, the Stinger will be a breeze for you. The functionality is the same, except the Stinger brings a few extra features to the table. 1) it will do gauge mode 2) it will allow viewing of the dive...

(Lanier) there is no diving in Atlanta . . . We're a land locked bunch. Quarries nearby are about all we have to play with. Thanks for the warm welcome. --Rick

I took over 70 shots while I was there, and this came out the best. I'll tell you a little secret. Lead 'em! This is the one I got when I tried that trick. --Rick

I have had an Ikelite housing for my Nikon 950 for 3 years now. Although it takes fine pictures, I find the housing so heavy and large, I often don't take it with me on trips. I own the 950 and the Ikelite housing, and I also have a 995. I stumbled on an ad in one of the various dive mags...

Thought I'd pop out one of my favorites for the board to chew on. I took this in Grand Bahamas back in Feb of 2001. This guy needed a hand flossing and I happend to be nearby. --Rick

I've hammered out useless information on quite a few scuba boards, but I just stumbled onto this one. WOW. GOBS of divers and gobs of info. I'm going to waste a lot of time here. So, how many other Atlanta, GA divers do we have here? --Rick
