Actually not a diver (yet) But we are avid snorkelers. I'm in southern Maine (USA) and have been in the water 70 times since June 2, it's been a good season so far. With shorter days we're pretty much confined to weekends now and hurricane season makes getting n the ocean tricky.
My wife joined me in the water this year and when and if she's ready I hope we can get certified. I'm gung-ho and ready but we're so busy I don't want to invest in a sport like this if it will mean even more time apart. Meanwhile we're having a great time up near the top where the water's warmer. Even that's relative, for the ocean here any day in the 60's is a cozy day!
We've invested in some good gear so we have a head start should we decide to take the big plunge. Meanwhile we have a good relationship with a LDS and feel that the ability to try before you buy and service we're gotten after the sale makes it the way to go. Not always the cheapest but for my liking it's the best value.
Meanwhile I'd love to hear about favorite warm water snorkeling destinations, here or via PM or email. A big trip would be nice some cold wither week!
Regards,
Pete
