Greetings from Sunny South Florida

[ppbon]

Hello all.
I'm new to the Board but not to diving. Been doing it for 39 years!
I'm doing at least two dive trips per month, year round, and would love to meet & dive with any of you when you come to visit our wonderful reefs and wrecks.
Happy Diving,
Pedro

Hi Pedro:

Where in South Florida are you and where do you dive? Be sure to check out the Florida Conch Divers forum on this site. Welcome.

Howdy!

And welcome to SB - the biggest, the best, the fastest growing, and the friendliest! If you'll simply click ScubaBoard.com above, you'll be taken to our long list of forums, a wealth of information and resources. My favorite is at the bottom: Singles Dive Club.

It would help in future diving discussions if you'd complete your Profile with location. You can use the Quick Links above to reach those easily. Sizing a photo for your profile or Avatar can be a challenge; I'm a fumbling amateur, but I get the job done, if you'd like any help?

PM me if I can help you learn your way around; that is - click my username to the upper left, then follow the prompts to send me a "Personal Message."

Hi Bob:
I live in Weston (west of Ft. Lauderdale) and I usually dive off Pompano Beach (reefs/wrecks), off Ft. Lauderdale (reefs/wrecks) and at the Biscayne Natl. Park off Homestead (reefs/wall).
Four or five times per year, as my travel dictates, I'll get to dive in the Bahamas, Caymans, Cozumel, Dominican Republic, Belize, Bonaire, and Curacao (among others).
It's cumbersome carrying all my dive gear (sans tanks), but it's certainly worth it.
Happy diving,
Pedro

WECOME to ScubaBoard Pedro!!!
With your experience, I can imagine that you'll be a great contributor to the site and I doubt that you'll have any problem finding dive buddies in your area.
I hope to see many of your posts.

Now for my stock message, which is still under construction: I really do have to work on modifying this note!!!
This is a great place to meet people, talk about diving, and get information on just about any aspect of diving -or other subjects sometimes- that you can think of. Roaming through the forums is great help for me.
Now get wet with us and dive into the forums to ask questions, answer those that you can and even chat with folks about diving dreams and nightmares. ScubaBoard is a great place to spend your required Surface Intervals.
When you post a question, be as sure as you can that it's in the right forum or you'll probably find it moved.
The folks here are passionate about their diving, some about their specialty, so the reading can get very interesting, sometimes very hot.
Don't forget, if you haven't already done it, to fill out you profile as completely as reasonable, it'll save you being asked and having to repeat the information often.
Enjoy!

Tom

Welcome to ScubaBoard! :happywave

Don't forget to fill out your profile and dive info, so that we can add context to your future posts. Also, once we know where you are geographically from your profile, you may find that you'll have a whole bunch of new dive buddies to choose from locally.

Dive safe!

Christian

P.S. Due to the high volume of new posts in the Introductions and Greets forum, it's not always possible to keep up with all the new posts here. So, please help me out and send me a PM if you post anything you want me to read or repsond to in this forum.
