    Check out the Peace Boat

    Great crew and outfit. You'll find lots of references to the Peace on the board.

    They're in Ventura Harbor, a short drive from Oxnard.

    Rick, I just returned yesterday from the Channel Islands after four days of diving the south and north islands. I dove with Truth Aquatics in Santa Barbara. They were just awesome. You can check them out at www.truthaquatics.com

    Glad you found us! This is a great place to spend your SI, but watch out, it's addictive!

    Check out the Great Lakes Wrecking Crew forum for neighbours and info.

    And then there's the California Kelp Divers for info where you are headed

    Peace Dive Boat and Truth Aquatics Are both first class operations. I dive with both often and am pleased with their service. The websites are www.peaceboat.com and www.truthaquatics.com.
    Enjoy some great diving and say hello to my buddies, the sealions and garibaldis!

    Welcome to SB!!
    :happywave Put us in your computer's favorites and check in often. This is a great place to learn, compare, argue Look around our various forums - everything from New-To-Scuba to Instructors-Only to Dive Medicine.


    Did Catalina front & back, and Clemente, last month on the Great Escape. Great experience, except take a foam rubber "egg crate" for the bunk.

    don

    BTW - Did you set up your Profile, as suggested here: http://www.scubaboard.com/t60416.html I update mine after every trip.

    You can test the tanks you breathe or - dive on hope.
    Testing is safer...


    Great news for vacation divers who cannot talk themselves into buying a personal CO tank tester!

    >> Rent one for a week or longer here <<
    Now let's see more CO readings in your trip reports, ok...??
