    Thanks, the camera is a Nikonos V with the 35 mm lens and the framers/tubes for the closeups. Flash is a Sunpak.

    I will however be moving to a housed system for a Nikon F50.

    Thanks for the great dive report and a few laughs to boot.
    So I got a tattoo of a turtle on my arm and a woman on the dive boat said "Oooh thats a nice tattoo. Do you like turtles?"

    are you sure you weren't flying northwest?

    LOL!!!!! your description of the flight service staff really made my day.

    excellent trip report - and photos. i still can't get over my own experiences in coron. your report certainly made me relive it. diving down the guideline and being dwarfed by a huge ship's rudder is an awesome experience.

    i am glad you enjoyed coron and its people as well.
