    Loss of Clark's Beach (aka: Secret Beach)

    you only have so long, hours most likely, to edit a post before the edit button dissappears. so, is it safe to say in general, that secret beach is located in the pocket of the north and south forks of the island?

    Looking for a dive operator NJ, NY PA area

    there are a slew of good boats and captains stretching from cape may to montauk. it might help to narrow down the long island / nj coastline a bit. there are thousands of ship wreck sites alone with a wide range of required skill level. you might want to narrow that list as well based on...

    St Lawrence drift dives

    i thought i was sure... but i think you are right. last time i dived the oconto (late oct) it was dark... oh and btw, there is no descent line anymore. i dug up a better pic from the bridge... you can see the lighthouse and both buoys... large and small.

    St Lawrence drift dives

    hmm. i replied to you 2 days ago... but it seems to have dissappeared. anyway... the vickery to the oconto is doable. albeit, deep in heavy current. the vickery is just off the lighthouse on rock island and the oconto is downstream towards the bridge, just under this marker buoy. [taken...

    St Lawrence drift dives

    i recently did a drift from the lily to the jb king. it was very nice. the current was med to low... so it took 40 minutes to get there. next season i might try the vickery to the oconto.

    Is the reason I can't post new photos because they are .jpe

    if by .jpe you are talking about the low res sony file that you can set the camera to take along with the high res... then just use the higher res .jpg file or change the extension of the low res from .jpe to .jpg. i haven't found many applications that recognize .jpe.

    Block Island shore dives

    There is (was?) one shop on the island called Island Outfitters. I think they closed for a while and moved locations. They are somewhere near new harbor now. http://national.citysearch.com/profile/9047045/?brand=smx_yp-nc I never did any shore diving there, but I know there are many...
