Ok, so it's not out yet, but will be in about 3 to 4 weeks. Watch for more soon. This is a VERY funny book, filled with stories illustrating the need for rules of etiquette among divers and just what they should be. Rule cover live aboards, day boats, underwater, talking, apres dive, and more. I know. My wife and I wrote it and just approved the final galley proofs. Stand by....

Sounds like a good idea...congratz on finishing the book and good luck :D

ZKY: I'm guessing he meant Talking, and apres dive is after dive :D

"tlaking" is a typo for talking, and that section is about when and where to give (and not give) advice, how to tell a godd story , and so on. "Apres dive," or "after diving" is about moving stuff from the boat, gear rinsing ( where and where not), and stuff like that.

A copy of thehe book will be sent to a whole bunch of dive shops nation wide, and we hope they all stock it. There will be a web site where you can buy direct from us, ( or amazon or barnesandnoble.com as well as the publisher- just not quite yet) and I think it may be a good idea to offer free shipping to SB members. We'll figure out a secret code for that. Stand by!
