We planned a 90 minute surface interval, and since all the dive sites are only short distances from the harbor, we took an opportunity to head back and grab a soda. The Marines were amassing equipment, personnel and a lot of food for their exercises. We again boarded Big Blue, and headed...

I recently serviced a 3 year old MK25 S600 R395 with around 50 dives on it for a customer, the reg was well used and corroded. I charged him $60 per hour and it took me a good 3 hours to service the regulator. It needed an Ultrasonic clean and took a while to strip as it was corroded...

Hey Laurie, We are located on the other side of the Island so you would need to get a cab to us. However our 2 tank dives are still $99. Because we are away from the cruise ships we usually have the dive sites to ourselves and it's rare to have another dive boat in the vicinity. Email...
