    Bahamas: Missing Female Diver

    My first thought, suicide or some reason in her mind to get away from DM. Who can say, we'lll never know. My thoughts and prayers to family, divers and recurers involved, and others.

    Things you've found under water

    I know this is one of those "you had to be there to understand" stories but had to tell it. I found my dive buddy. REALLY! We had gotten seperated quickly in murky CSSP in Terrell, TX. Our plan if seperated was to meet at our entry point but finish our dive. From a boat to a platform maybe 20...

    Swamper Fling June 19-21, 2009

    I feel for you and the surgery. read some posts where you discussed this previously. If you have questions about post surgery and diving or rehab I'd be glad to advise you. I had both knees done (not at the same time, thats just, well nevermind) and not even 50 yet. Believe me the benefits as...

    New BC - problem with vertical positioning

    I have a dive buddy that has similar issue. She has tried all types of weight and BC adjustments. I trust her advice since She has logged over 200 dives to my 25. She has gone to using ankle weights under her wetsuit to get her vertical. Us men do not have the same anatomical problems as do...

    Cruising and 4 stops where to go diving

    One suggestion I will make about the diving. Find a local dive shop that caters to the cruise ships. Don't take the cruise line diving excursions. I went to Charolette, St. Thomas onboard a Royal Carribean ship in December. I have tried diving with the cruise line, and believe me when I say the...

    Dive Report: Flower Gardens 5/30-31

    I would like more info on this trip if you have a chance to send it to me. You said it was going to be "diving boot camp" but looks like it was worth it. If I survive the Cat Ppalou in a couple of weeks I want to go to Flower Gardens. Lot more to see than at the Terrell Swamp. But, I'll be at...

    CSSP June 6th

    Temp at surface was 78 according to my computer. At depths below platforms it ranged from 72 to 68. Better than last weekend. Visibility was better, but not as packed. Lots of new fishy's born along the walls. Beware of the mothers they are protective. Wearing a 3ml suit with hood and gloves...

    Hi from Irving, TX

    A dive shop on Greenville Ave called Dive West is reasonable, easily accesible, and are fun people. There are many dive shops to choose from. My situation may be a little similar to yours. After OW I didnt want to drive to Austin every weekend. Did not know all the local dive spots and not...

    Water temp at Terrell?

    I was there Sunday May 24th. IN a 3mm suit with a hood and gloves. Honestly it was toooo coold at the plane, 64 degrees about 22 feet, 62 at the bottom. Surface was 74 down to about 18-20 feet. Even Cisco (the Shark) was shivering. I think it will be nicer May 31. It was packed and by the end of...

    Like being underwater from Dallas TX.

    First time Ive posted on this site. Met a few people that are regulars here at CSSP May 24, really nice people. Not new to diving, looking to improve my skills and add certifications. I am new to quarry diving, but its a good place to work on navigation. Its a workout to get from vehicle to...
