    YAP & PALAU - UNITED GIVETH & UNITED TAKETH AWAY

    We are on Odyssey as well in January and this has messed us up too. Still plan to dive Saturday but will keep it shallow and make out with some 50% on the hang bar for a bit.

    VRX or Perdix AI

    Purchased a VTX and hated it. It was unusable in shallow bright waters such that I could not see my depth or time. Sold it and bought a perdix a week before they introduced the AI and I love it.

    Easy Diving Reachable from NYC?

    Give MIAMI a look. Not as much current as west palm, but just easy chill diving. Also a lot cheaper to get to than the other places mentioned.

    Palau diving trip for 2 people

    If you could get Sams to push the deadline one month I would be interested. We are headed there early January and have booked travel, but not the lodging or diving yet.

    Questions About Truk

    I dived Truk in June of 2016 and am booked again for January 2018. We are flying Delta into ROR from NRT, doing a week there, then over to TKK for a week. I did the Odyssey, and on the last day visited both Truk Stop and Blue Lagoon. In my humble but accurate opinion, the Odyssey is by far...

    Flying with a 30 cuft tank

    Anyone do it on the regular? Live in ATL and enjoy diving in NC and FL, but fly most times. I would like to carry a redundant air source, but cant find anyone to rent tanks smaller than 80's. could rig an 80 up as a stage, but a 30 or 40 would be easier. Everyone tell me why I am an idiot in...

    Diver dies after being rescued in Jupiter

    I do agree about self assessment, and would offer another consideration. Self assessment on how prone you are or are not to sea sickness. It seems every summer I end up on a boat with folks who talk about their 100's of logged dives at the quary and how super duper awesome they are. Then we...

    Truk Jan 2017

    Mike Gerken is one of the skippers of the Odyssey and is a top notch dude. As for taking your wife, I will echo what everyone else said. No way I would still be married if I took my wife there. Nothing to do, and for me, everything food wise at Blue Lagoon that was not fish was basically...

    Gluing pockets onto wetsuit

    I have pockets on a 1mm and 3mm and lack of stretch in that area has never been an issue. That said, I now have the shorts referenced above, and doubt I will glue pockets on again, instead using the shorts.

    Computers with non-conservative algorithm.

    Had a bunch of Oceanics and just got a Shearwater. Holy Crap the Perdix is such a far superior, and easier to use computer than anything Oceanic has it is ridiculous. On one dive my instructor showed me a different feature on the computer underwater and I could replicate it immediately. In...

    For Sale Oceanic VTX with Transmitter

    Bought this as a back up soon to be primary computer once I learned it, for a trip to Truk. It performed flawlessly (thank goodness because my primary flooded one day in) but while in Truk I got bit by the tec diving bug, and thus want to pick up a more technical computer. Unit is in great...

    Oceanic VT4: Can someone make a video on how to remove the vt4 wristband.

    Thank you very much for this post. It made it so that I could actually use my DSS mount. The bicycle tire tool was key!
