Sold! Anyone else interested, do seek one of these boats out. They are fanttastic

We are now a multi-kayak family, and I am going to sell the DiveYak. New was $700. I'll sell it for 450. It is a very durable inflatable kayak, in great shape, treated well, with no leaks. I have stored it indoors and have rinsed, dried and aired it well. It has had only light use, I think...

Both are stainless.

Hey folks, so sorry if you've written and not gotten a response from me. I haven't figured out how to get email notifications when there are posts to my thread, so I've only just seen this. I'll look more often - someone if you know how, do tell how to turn on email notifications. Best...

Vintage Freedom Plate One of the very first models ever made, this is the plate that started it all. • It is #6 out of the first nine completely hand made stainless plates. • Designed to be the most comfortable modern backplate ever produced with curves that follow the contours of your back...

Great topic! I was cert'd in 1974 when 60 ft/minute was acceptable ascent. Took a long break and got back in the water about 5 years ago with new equipment and the revised more conservative deco/ascent data. Although I have a good computer with digital depth, I dislike it. I'm very...

Wow Jeff, I'm so sorry to hear about your experience. I was so enthusiastic about mine, and I still am. I did however approach it gradually. I agree that the tracking is not so great, but that's when compared to another boat. I accepted that and adapted my paddling to get over it. I think...

Hey everyone- Whatever your stance on spearfishing, abalone or other CA ocean fishing and harvesting, time is running out for public comment on Fish and Game coastal closures. If youve (attempted) to read through the involuted, interest conflicting, special interest motivated tones and...

Yeah you guys- thanks for mentioning this - one more thing. In my first research prior to getting my yak, I heard harrowing tales of divers coming up to find no boat, and sometimes even to find it out by finding their anchor as they prepared to ascend...without an anchor line attached. It...

I've had a kayak for about a year. I have two things to share. One is on attitude of safety. The other is why I arrived at my own boat choice in light of it. To the point, I think a yak can be even more safe than kicking out, especially if it's out far enough. And arriving rested even as...

Fantastic! Thanks you guys. I have always heard that, that clear urine = right hydration. Is it that we're always so dehydrated that it feels *abnormal* to have to pee so much, and so urgently when there's finally enough fluid moving through the system to be clear? Just curious on that one...

Hey Docs- Wow, fantastic read! Thanks so much for 'splaining' us, the hormonal and pressure reasons for mondourination. Here on the CA Northcoast, the water is 45-49F. We do significant surface surface swims to and from in varied wind/swell conditions that can in themselves keep you in...

Yo Kelpdiver- Here's a fun trick. Buy a couple of rechargeable warmers that you can slip into your suit just before you jump in the water. You'll find them on the internet under "reusable hand warmers". If your suit back-zips, get the biggest you can find, because you won't be able to put in...

Hey all, Good topic. Get this thing-it is really great. I LOVE this thing. It is called Sinus Rinse. Company is Neilmed. Longs Drugs and other stores here in the San Francisco Northbay area sell them, and by now you can probably buy them online too. This is not just a saline spray. It...

Y'all- By now you've see my posts perhaps - Yep you can call me to dive Northcoast. I have the kind of work that I can arrange to cut out and dive, even on relatively short notice. So put me on your buddy call list. I'll go tank or ab, whatever. Shore or kayak is fine.

Hi folks, I can dive tomorrow or Thur. Anyone free for Sonoma coast? Shore or yak, scuba/free...in we go!

Day before yesterday, 5-6' at Timber Cove South. Went down late afternoon first time ever in later afternoon...ooooow, like midnight in the eelgrass...that was fun and not thanks free diving...turned into a fantastic boat sunset, and touched down on sand at sundown. Beautiful!

MRAB & friends- I just posted last week for a buddy (to dive yesterday). The post was that I write the appt. and class schedule in my own businesses, so I actually can get available to dive most days of the week - including weekdays. I like to dive a day a week, sometimes two during ab...

Hey Rob and all- I just saw your posts. I'm back available for the season. I write my schedule, can go most days of the week. How about tomorrow! :lotsalove: You guys know the drill, we all have some buddies, but can't always match their available days. Call me at 707-829-0776 or email...

Wow, that bug thing really got me. I must have tapped on my screen in disbelief (oh no, not ANOTHER computer problem %$#^%!! :)
