LeadTurn_SD, Doc Harry and ScubaSteve, Thank you so much for your insight. It certainly was an eye opener. I was shocked to find out about rescue procedures or lets call it the code. I've read a little, too. As soon as I am done with advanced and I gain a little more experience I want to...

One thing I want to point out is that DS is more educational than recreational. If you want to develop a new skill or keep yourself in shape when in NE, DS is the place; it is the perfect controlled environment with least amount of risks. It's like a giant pool, the very definition of a lake...

Hi everyone! I've got certified at the end of last season and I already have 15 dives (not including the certification dives) in my log. I started diving with my best friend but she had to move to another state for work :depressed: I want to get advanced certification this summer hopefully...

Let me explain it in men: You're on a boat, on vacation, (most alcohol least regret unlimited sex zone. Well you practically never leave the unlimited sex zone, you just don't know it). You can't hide on a boat, baby. You're wearing a bikini and you're on vacation. You look tanned. You must be...
