I won a Sherwood Zodiac+ this weekend in a charity event. Does anyone have any experience with this BCD? I really don't think it will be my primary, but I intend to keep it as a back up.

I had some problems this past summer on a drift dive. First off, this was my first ocean experience. I have been diving for several years, mainly quarries, and feel that I am very comfortable at depth. The dives were set up as groups of 4-6 people, with one towing a surface buoy. The first dive...

After all these years, I have FINALLY gotten to dive the ocean. My son and I just got back from Ft. Lauderdale, and had a wonderful time with South Florida Diving Headquarters. I had an initial weighting problem due to the salt water, but resolved that quickly and had some memorable dives. It...

My son and I have been considering a trip to Mermet. Anyone have any experience there? From their website, it looks like a pretty nice place, but I hear stories of serious cold and iffy viz.

This may qualify as a stupid question, so blast me if you feel the need.:dork2: Salt water is heavier than fresh water. Fresh water is lighter than salt water. But the atmospheric pressure is the same? Unless I am just thinking too much, it seems that the depth of each ATM of pressure would be...

Opinion time, especially for the guys. What do you wear under the wetsuit? I have tried the basic swim truncks, but they tend to bunch up, and get uncomfortable. I have seen alot of guys go with the banana hammock speedos, but I couldn't make myself get into one of those. Personally, I went with...

I may be getting to the Charleston, SC area next year and would love to do some wreck diving. I have never done wreck diving before, so I would love to hear some opinions on good entry level wrecks and reputable charters in the area. Thanks

I have question. My son and I went diving yesterday. We did the first dive, all was fine, then went in for a second. As we were descending, at about 15', my son looked like he was having trouble equalizing. We came up a few feet, and tried again, but no luck. So we surfaced, and he said it was...

I have been diving, infrequently, for about 15 years. But look forward to ALOT more since my son certified a couple of months ago. This looks like a good educational site, and I hope to learn alot from the experienced divers here. Thanks

I just received a Genesis Resource Pro as a prize in a charity event. This is the first computer I have ever had/used, but am looking forward to getting in to this century. My problem is the owner's manual. I am not sure if it is my lack of experience with computers, or if I am just a little...
