This thread idea was stolen hook, line, and sinker from the SoCal Beach Crabs. It is for everyone to stop in and say hi and let the other divers know just a bit about yourself. It is not a place to chat or share messages. It is a spot to find dive buddy's and get to know some of your neighbors. Feel free to pm anyone on this list, if you'd like, to see if they are up for diving.

Name: MissD/Tracy

Location: Tampa/Westchase Area

Comments: Diving is my passion. I love to get new people in the water to show them what they have been missing. I also love to dive with the more experienced diver - as I am always wanting to learn. I'm always seeking out new adventure's. I'm available most anytime to dive. I also spearfish and do a bit of amateur photography.
 
Name: CoolTech/Jim

Location: Tampa Bay/Palm Beach Gardens

Comments: I'm usually the nut ball of the group (above the water line...). I used to be an instructor, but let the insurance go 20 years ago. I often give divers their new unofficial nicknames (Ralph, Nancy, Wrong Way... you get the idea :wink:). I usually split my diving between the coasts... 20 years ago I was an underwater hunter. I traded that in for a camera and now I take the pictures (some good, some not so good). I dive with all types of divers... beginner to technical. In the past two years I have been attacked by Bull Sharks (got away with everything in tact) and had a close encounter while diving with Tracy. I'm a qualified solo diver, but when I dive with a buddy, I am a buddy :14:
 
Name : Git-R-Dun/ Ken

Location : Brandon

Comments : I'm all about anything that gets me wet. From spearfishing to springs if it has water I will dive in it (except caves, I'm not that guttsy yet). I've only been diving for a couple of years but I am totally obsessed with it and I'll dive with just about anyone as long as they are certified of course.
 
Name: eandiver/Mark

Location: St.Petersburg

Comments: I really enjoy diving and the people I meet while doing so. Shallow shore dives to deep wrecks, cave diving, fresh water to salt, it's all good. I'll dive with anyone, 10 dives to 1000 dives it doesn't matter as long as they are certified and safe.
 
Name: Johnny_Bravo/Jens

Location: Fort Myers

Comments: Been diving in Florida as a visitor from the frozen north for about 4 years now...loved it from my first dive in Key Largo...a full-time Florida resident now for about a year and a half. I dive mostly on the East Coast (West Palm/Jupiter) and out of St. Pete's. I'll dive with anyone who's safe and in almost any conditions (reconsidering a repeat of the Hudson Grotto). Most of my diving is done during the week as I'm self-employed. During this next year I'm thinking of dabbling in spearfishing and maybe a cavern course.

Comments: Just moved here from Iowa. I am attending Eckerd College for Marine Biology. I would love to get to meet everyone and I will dive with anyone, well as long as you won't actively try to kill me. I use to dive all the time, but honestly haven't had the chance to dive a whole lot lately, so I am seriously itching to get some dives in.

Name: Narcosis - Dave

Location: South East Pasco county - Just off I75

Comments: Although I love to dive anywhere, low vis, no vis, great vis, Salt, Fresh, Cave, Reef, Wreck, I can usually be found diving in either a cave or from my boat in the Gulf. Also going the pro route, currently a PADI Dive Master and EFR Instructor. Hope to be an Open Water Instructor by May. I've started my own Dive travel business and hope to some day make it my full time job (ok, working retirement). I'll dive with just about anybody as long as you have the right mindset.

PADI Instructor....Love to dive. I've lived here about 3 years, and only recently started diving regularly again ! Can be found most weekends at venice for a quick dive with the kids. They are both in college now so this seems to be one of the few places they can be seen with dad !! Would love to meet/dive with anyone who's interested,just give me a shout.
