    manually adding dives to shearwater desktop ?

    i'm tidying up the dive logs and would really like to have all my dives in one spot. is there any way to manually add dives to shearwater desktop? even if it's just date, site name, max depth, and bottom time consolidating things into a single system would be so nice.

    Zeagle Brigade BCD - Size XL/XL

    I would like to sell my gently used Zeagle Brigade that's been taking up closet space since I switched to a BP/W. The Zeagle Brigade is a Scuba Toys exclusive BCD that combines the harness system of Zeagle's Ranger with the slightly smaller #35 wing from their Escape. All the info you would...

    cutting down petrel straps

    Thanks for the insight. I tuck my ends in but she's not down with that. Will see that she thinks about bungee and will cut if need be. If all goes to hell, I expect I can order a new set of stock straps and start over. LOLed at "giant forearms".

    cutting down petrel straps

    The Mrs. says that the tails of the Petrel straps bug her and she's asking me to cut them down. I assume that it's similar to cutting bungee cord - cut then burn with a lighter - but I'd really like to not screw this up. Before I start getting crazy with the scissors I thought I'd check in to...

    overboard dry bag backpack

    Noticed the other day that all three of the DM's at my favorite dive shop in Cayman sport Overboard dry bag backpacks. They seem pretty keen but are rather pricy compared to a boring cheap-o dry bag. Just wondering if anyone had any experience with Overboard bags specifically or if there were...

    Grand Cayman Restaurant Recommendations

    Just got back from GC two days ago. I'll throw my votes toward Chicken! Chicken!, Cimboco and XQ's as well. Also gotta get Al La Kebabs in there (we usually eat there 2-3 times in a week). Sunshine Grill is really good, but equally difficult to get a table at. For happy hour, don't forget...

    sunscreen & diving

    So I did a bit more research and ended up with a stick of Burt's Bees Baby Bees sunscreen (all natural physical sunblock, zinc & titanium based, reef safe). Used it on my nose on a couple of 8am runs and didn't get burnt to ensure it worked. Then I got a fair amount of the sunscreen on my...

    sunscreen & diving

    As you were the first to bring this up... Is it that the non-chemical sunscreens actually do not sting the eyes or more so they don't run so they don't get in your eyes? As an aside, I most always wear an Army-Navy store boonie hat on the boat, but my nose and cheeks still end up burnt. Never...

    sunscreen & diving

    I try to be sun smart while on the dive boat but, I have always avoided using any kind of sunscreen on my face because I don't want to deal with stinging eyes while under water. Consequently, I most always end up with a sunburn. Anyone know of a sunblock that is diver friendly and truly won't...

    lavacore vs sharkskin vs thermoprene

    My 3 mil has gotten a bit too big and I'm considering adding a thermal skin (for lack of a better word) to the mix to wear on it's own as well as under the slightly-too-big 3 mil. It seems that Lavacore, Sharkskin and Fourth Element's ThermoCLINE full suits are all pretty similar. Looking for...

    GUE Fundamentals Class in DFW Texas

    I'm interested in a possible GUE Primer or Fundies class held in DFW (probably moreso in Premier). My wife/dive buddy may be in too. We live in Farmers Branch. Keep me in the loop, if you would. Thanks.
