I finally got the housing back from Ikelite, and they performed a full service with lots of replacement parts. Ready to go diving! $3000 shipped.

Everything still available. Lowering price to $3300.

Hey everyone! I'm looking to sell my current DSLR rig. Since moving from Florida to San Francisco it hasn't seen any use, and with a big trip coming up, I'd like to have something smaller. I originally purchased the setup from a user on Wetpixel in mid 2013. (...

Anything still available?

I'm interested... still available? Are there any blemishes on the glass of the port?

Sorry for another region specific question, but my girlfriend's handles have already broken off. She bought the BCD while working in Thailand, but is currently located in Australia. Will this be an international type recall? Do we need to contact Aqualung Asia Pacific? We'll be in America...

I miss leopard sharks =[ Your best chance this season (in my opinion, of course) is Hin Bida. Some of the Phi Phi dive centers might call it Phi Phi Shark Point. I see at least one most times I dive there. This year I've seen a few at Phuket Shark Point, one at Anenome Reef, and a few at...

From my experiences, they have friendly staff and an organized operation.

Well done. Now just convince her to do a trydive at Koh Haa as well ;) Next thing you know she'll be dragging you to various dive sites!

Hin Daeng trip is my favorite in this area. There are several operators on Lanta that operate off speedboats. You could make a trip out there and still be back by early afternoon rather than in the evening. The cost is not significantly more than the large boats, either. PM me if you want...

Sorry I don't have the knowledge of the liveaboards operating those dive sites. If you're interested in other options, there are regular day trips to both of those sites from Phi Phi and Koh Lanta. A day trip to Koh Haa is about 2 hour travel time from Koh Lanta on a large boat and 40...

I work with two instructors who did an internship at Mermaids. They are both very good instructors and I enjoy working with them. They've told me it was an experience they'll never forget with it's ups and downs. They always mention how bad the diving was there in comparison to where we work...

Diving in Phi Phi has not been affected either... even with the rain we were out every day. It's actually nicer under the water when the weather is nasty, in my opinion. The last 3 days have been bright and sunny, so I hope it holds for your vacation!

Hey there Mike, I live and work on Phi Phi, so I can give a bit of advice for you. As for accommodations, you can get a decent fan room for about 400 baht and an AC room for 800 a night. Of course, if you want to go luxury then things can get more expensive. Best bet is to do a bit of...

3 sightings in the last 2 weeks here in Phi Phi. All off of Bida Nok. (Just had to tell someone, I guess.) Luckily our videographer was there as well :D Whale Shark with damaged fin - YouTube

I have a W2 that says I made zero dollars with zero withholding. All it has is a $2000 entry with the code of Q on line 12. (Combat Pay) Whether or not I add this to my return does not seem to effect my taxes whatsoever. Is there any way I can enter this money to benefit my refund? Thanks...

Thanks for this! I was just glancing over that newsletter and it keeps mentioning PADI Worldwide. So all members should get this regardless of region? I feel gypped!

I've been both PADI Asia-Pacific and PADI America and I have never received Sport Diver. It is the official publication of the PADI Diving Society if I'm not mistaken... Perhaps the OP mistakenly paid for this as well? :dontknow:

This seems like a cheery thread! Also, tl;dnr.

It can happen on any dive. I think you're more at risk when you start getting complacent. I'll go ahead and throw up an embarrassing and dangerous scenario that happened to me awhile back. Some friends and I were fun diving off a day trip boat near Phuket. The policy is to inflate your...
