Just moved to Ontario (ottawa) from Halifax

It was nice to meet you too. Thought I saw Barb, but was busy with the OW class, so missed saying hi again to her.

Still only thinking, but, I do believe I'll pass on the Ice Diving this year.

Funny dude!

it is just a little bit of warm diving to break up the cold diving..................something a little deeper than the pool..........a little softer than the current water conditions...................

Your still a wussie........drysuit and afraid of a little bit of icy water..........

I'm not afraid of a "little bit of icy water" -- I just don't like "a lot of icy water".

BTW - the OW for the HSA course must be done not using drysuits. Mind you the OW is not until the begining of May, so the water will have warmed up from the current 3-5C to the balmy temps in the 5-10C range!

from (to) the "hot air capital" after all we do have all those politicians here.

As Amphibious said, Burtons has Wet Owls, but some of the other shops also have dive "clubs" -- Sharkeys, KDS and Dolphinos just to name three.

There is also a couple of non-store affiliated dive clubs in Ottawa. Seaway Valley divers out of Cornwall is also very active. Your now within a two hours drive of some of the best diving in the world.

Thanks Bubble Boy...yes I am somewhat excited about my move here because of the great diving. I hope to be heading down to Kingston every weekend (when diving resumes)... Also hear that there are lots of good dives in the St. Lawrence too!

Hopefully I will hook up with a couple of local (Ottawa) divers who would like to do the same...we could then alternate vehicles each weekend. Share the cost of accomadation on the odd weekend etc...

I'm sure that I will get to know the local Kingston divers, shops and charter operators as well.

By the way..where are you located BB?
