I agree wholeheartedly. I am one that didn't think it was worth it. It was a LONG boat ride out and back, quite miserable in my experience, for a very short bottom time. I'd skip it.

I was hiking around Point Lobos yesterday and rounded Whaler's Cove about 10am when the Monterey Express entered the cove and the rescue team launched the inflatable to pick up a diver on board. I can't find any info on the incident. Does anyone know what happened?

Yes, they are 2 different things. But I think Mark was responding to the comment/question about no confirmed reports and that the guy had not done anything illegal. He referred to my original post where I shared that Fred had grabbed me underwater and attempted to drag me off in an unplanned...

Personally, I've only seen him at Lover's Point and Breakwater. Just say, "No!".

Sorry...not a suunto.

A friend of mine found a dive computer at Monastery Beach and turned it over to me to post on the board. PM me if you think it's yours.

:11doh: Oops! Sorry....I mis-read your post. Yes...my issue was the acrylics lifting. I have never heard of natural nails lifting from the nail bed without some sort of trauma to them. Perhaps this one is a medical question. I know it's out of my realm. Sorry I mis-read.

"white as can be and cancer free". Words to live by.

I've also been diving with acrylics for years. Even when I was diving weekly, I didn't have a problem with lifting. I tend to keep them at a more "active" length. Dive trips are a different story. With 4+ dives a day, they do tend to either start lifting or chip. My sis, who does...

My niece needs a PADI refresher before a trip to Belize. Any advice on reputable dive shops/instructors in the Phoenix/Mesa area?

Anyone have any up-to-date news of the "missing diver" off Monastary yesterday? I was walking a loop around Carmel yesterday. As I passed the rough surf at Carmel Beach and saw waves breaking offshore past Copper Roof House, I thought, "really bad day for diving". As I rounded the bend...

Anyone lose a Zeagle weight pouch out at Point Lobos. I found one today near the boat ramp. It has a distinguishing characteristic.

scubasean: you are the man! I knew I could cound on you for the info. As I recall, you posted the info on SB last year. I was a newbie then, with only 8 dives under my weightbelt. I didn't have a buddy for the clean-up dive but hooked up with some great divers at the event. I almost...

Does anyone know if there is going to be a clean-up dive this year as part of the annual Coastal Clean-Up on Saturday? I've had a heck of a time trying to find information on it.

Being a single parent has got to be one of the most stressful situations. I think the previous posts that suggest your problem is related to stress is right on. Unfortunately, most single parents feel like they have to sacrafice taking care of themselves to make sure their kids' needs are met...

Well if it's going to be a party, count me in! I live in Monterey so I can join in for a dive anytime. Night dives sound great to me. Keep in mind that I started the recent Fred thread so be kind. I'm fragile and vulnerable :06: As for your bulb, Burner...I've got a spare light...

This was one of the reasons for starting this thread. Unfortunately, after talking to an officer I know, I waited too long to make a report and it would be a legal stretch to make any charges stick. However, I really believe that, if these incidents were reported immediately, something would...

All the sites mentioned are really great sites. I especially like Point Lobos because you can plan your dives according to your experience level. One tip that really helped me when I got started was hooking up with divers with a little more experience. I learned a lot from them and felt...

Mask found on 8/28/04, dive light found on 9/4/04. Both were found at Breakwater near the Coast Guard pier. PM me if you think it's yours.

Gotta love diver humor!
