Hi WicketsMom, I was just checking on a thread I had started on Scubaboard a little bit ago. You mentioned you would provide feedback on the Breezes Resort in Curacao. I was just curious as to how it was. Well, I hope you had a great time during your vacation! Thanks again for getting back...

I apologize for the delayed response. I also got my drysuit altered by Dive Right In Scuba. They did an awesome job, and my suit was done very quickly! I can't say enough positive things about dealing with them!

I was just wondering if it was even possible to convert the regulator. I think the Status feature is kind of a gimmick so I was looking to remove it. Plus, it adds a little bit of weight and bulk to the regulator. Not much, but every little bit counts when traveling. I also think it is...

Hey Everyone, I can get a good deal on an Apeks XTX200 Status regulator. However, I do not believe that function is necessary so I was wondering if it could simply be removed from the regulator and changed with the regular XTX200 environmental sealing cap. Is that possible to do? Or are...

I also forgot to add that I have checked on trip TripAdvisor. It is good to see people mention some of the activities that are recommended on that site. Keith

Hey Everyone, I wanted to thank everyone for the feedback. I am planning on getting married in Curacao. I know that I did not mention that in my initial post. As for the group I will be traveling with, some people will not dive some will do some diving. I know some people will just want...

Hi everyone, I have a few questions about Curacao. I am planning a trip to Curacao next January, and I am wondering what is a good all-inclusive resort on the island. All-inclusive is needed because of non-diving people I will be traveling with. I was also wondering what types of land...

Hey everyone, I just had my Whites Fusion drysuit altered so I can use silicon seals (wrist and neck). Anyway, I was wondering if I have to do anything different to care for the silicon seals. My suit had the stock latex seals on before it was altered. Thanks in advance. Keith

streetjudge79, Have you used the video light on a dive? I was wondering how well it worked, and I have not seen any reviews on it. You also asked me a question about hand placement in a different thread where Sealife camera pictures are posted. I replied there. Just let me know if you have...

streetjudge79, I am predominantly right handed. As a result, I like carrying my camera with my right hand. I prefer to carry my camera by the right side of housing with my hand closer to the top (near shutter button). This forces me to slightly bend the right arm away from the camera for...

Here are some pictures where I just the DC 1200 camera housing. I think I will always use my two flashes from now on.

Hi, I just returned from Cozumel a few days ago where I tried my first attempt at underwater photography. I did one shore dive where I got a few really nice pictures with a DC 1200 Maxx kit. I also took just the camera housing diving one day. The external flashes definitely make a...

Herman, Thanks for the tip about running camera and housing over an A/C vent. I am a newbie to underwater photography. Sometimes I, too, miss things that should obviously work well. Much appreciated. Kfilly

Johnnyscience, I have an XL pair of Slingshot fins. They are roughly 27" long. They also weigh about five and a half pounds according to Aqua Lung's product weight calculator (hidden on their website). They do accept boots, and they are very comfortable. Additionally, the Slingshots...

After all of the comments I received regarding these fins, I decided to order a pair. Unfortunately, I need a size large, and Aqua Lung apparently will not be able to ship those out until the middle of November. Also, I will not be able to try them diving as the area I dive has cold water year...

I use the largest F1 fins that are made. I cannot remember their exact size off the top of my head, but I do know that they were made to fit a men's size 12 to 15 foot. If you were planning on getting a pair, I would check out the Hollis website for sizing information. The F1 fins fit very...

I am sorry for the delay. I like to let people know what I ended up choosing for my needs after hearing your suggestions. I read numerous reviews on each of the types of fins mentioned. I decided to go with the Hollis F1 fins. Based on the reviews I read, they seemed to be the best choice...

Zaixon Sorry, I just noticed your post today. I guess it is better to respond late than never. I am not sure if you were you referring to Whites EVO Dry suit boots or some type of wetsuit boots. I have a Whites Fusion dry suit with their EVO3 rock boots (size 13 rock boots). I also own L/XL...

Chris, Did you check to see if the mask seals properly to your face before you bought it? A mask should be tested to make sure the seal is correctly fitted for your face. The steps to testing the seal on your mask are done by lightly holding the mask up to your face with the mask strap...

Hey everyone, I have a dilemma. I currently use Aqua Lung Sling Shot fins which I love. My problem is that I recently purchased a Whites Fusion Bullet dry suit with EVO3 rock boots. My rock boots are men's size 13 (US sizing). My XL Sling Shot fins (largest size they make) do not fit over...
