    Removing rust from Fabers without damaging paint

    I recently bought a 5 yr old set of whire Faber HP100s that were doubled. After removing the bands, I found rust on top of the paint where the bands rusted. I don not think the tanks have rusted below the paint. Any tips for removing the surface rust? Obviously I do not want to damage the...

    Pompano Beach artificial reef death?

    I will provide an update when I hear an official cause of death. I am most interested to know if it was a medical issue or if he simply drowned. We won't know until the investigation is complete, which will take a while.

    Dive Sites in West End

    Moorings would be great but info on all sites would be better. I am more than happy to explore the sites to see if mooring are in place. I rarely dive with moorings in S FL so info on all sites would be a big help. Thanks for the help.

    Dive Sites in West End

    Thanks for the info. I looked online then contracted Wavy Lines directly. They told me that the charts that they have with dive sites do not include West End - only for the south shore. It seems I am back to square one. As always, I appreciate you assistance.

    Dive Sites in West End

    I will be cruising to Old Bahama Bay Marina in West End in my own boat in Aug. and plan to dive. Does anyone know where I can get a list of dive sites? Since I will be diving from my own boat I am looking for gps coordinates. Thanks for any help or pointing me in the right direction.

    Mooring Balls in Bimini

    I am headed to Bimini in my personal boat in May for a weekend of diving. Does anyone have gps coordinates for the best dive spots / mooring balls? My understanding is that there are about 20 mooring balls that were installed for dive boats.

    Waiver for diving on a private boat?

    I had thought about that. At what point does it become a "commercial operation" which is NOT my intent. I just want to take buddies diving like all the other private boats here. Anyone have any knowledge on this in FL?

    Waiver for diving on a private boat?

    Is that the response you give to every dive opp that presents you with a waiver to sign? To a widowed spouse, my boat and a cattle boat from a large dive opp are the same. Sarcasm helps no one. ---------- Post added September 16th, 2013 at 09:56 AM ---------- Wookie - Thanks! Very...

    Waiver for diving on a private boat?

    My thought is that if a diver has a heart attack at 60ft and dies, his family can / will sue regardless of how well I know the diver. I plan to take a few friends out wreck / reef / drift diving in S FL. Nothing extreme and no tech. Regardless of how safely I run the boat, accidents and...

    Waiver for diving on a private boat?

    I have recently moved to Fl and purchased a boat. I would like to take friends and people that I meet on SB /Meetup, etc diving. I think it is a good idea that I have them sign some type of liability waiver. There are other threads discussing this, but I did not find where anyone posted an...

    Trip Report - Maui & Kona

    I was told that they do see the hammerheads year round, but more are present at certain times of the year. You may want to give Lahaina Divers a call and ask what they expect the population to look like when you will be there. As far as my “own bike,” I meant the bike that I own...

    Trip Report - Maui & Kona

    I have been asked about the surface interval time before flying by several people. There was a minimum of 23 hours between my last dive and each flight. Tstalcup is correct - our flight out left at 9 PM.
