Here are my pictures from the same trip. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152128766728332.1073741826.560593331&type=1&l=fc4cf71e74

The MK17/A700 setup is in no way a "cheap" setup. It is not "cast pot metal junk". The second stage is hand crafted brass coated with chrome. It is a true, full metal reg and a sealed diaphram first stage. It breathes great and will work in just about any water temperature. I primarily use...

I have not asked if tanks for shore diving are included but as far as I am concerned, 4 dives a day is enough! The shop seems pretty flexible so I suspect if someone wanted more diving, they could be accommodated.

4 days and 16 dives into our trip and I am pretty happy with Aquazone. The staff is friendly and helpful. The boats they use are comfortable, particularly the catamaran Aukai. They know where the good dive sites are and will lead you as required. If you are reasonably skilled, they won't...

Diving in Canada, I always use a 7mm hood. No way can I hear my cobra 3 beep. Maybe on a warm water dive trip?

I leave tomorrow for Oahu and I have booked the 7 day unlimited package with Aquazone. I will update this thread after I have a few dives with them.

Very artistic Dale. I am looking forward to diving Pavilion in 2 weeks.

A very nice video Dale. I enjoyed the dive with you :)

See you there!

I bought mine a year and a half ago and my wife's last month. They have the same firmware so my guess is there is not an update. There is a new Suunto Dive Manager version available.

AM and I can't make it this week as we have a dinner on Wednesday. See you at the meeting Thursday!

Great video Dale. I quite enjoyed the trip although I am not sure I would go again. I think it is the kind of dive everyone should do once. For me, the hardest part was gearing up in 28 degree sunshine, then climbing down the ladder. I thought I was going to expire! My drysuit turned into a...

I gotta say I like the looks of the BJ2110. I have the JP1060 and I quite like it. I think the diving functions are easier to read with the digital display but in any event, I am sure you will be happy with either choice.

Thanks for leading the dive tonight Dale. I hope more people will come out to share a dive with us on future Wednesdays.

My wife and I are booked to go to Hawaii (Waikiki) in September. Can anyone tell me about Aquazone diving? They are in the same hotel we will be staying at and their website looks pretty good. I am hoping someone can give me some firsthand reports about their operation.

I guess it's a matter of degree (pun intended) :) I have seen many posts on SB about people having issues in cold water with the Mk 25. It may be that they don't have good cold water technique or that their regs are set up wrong. All I know is that in cold water (0-4 celsius), a Mk17 is...

Citizen Aqualand can be had for that price range. I love having mine as a backup depth guage and bottom timer.

If you dive cold water, then the Mk17/A700 is the best money can buy. In this part of the world, I see 10 Mk17 first stages for every Mk25. That being said, I think the Mk 25 is fabulous for warmer waters. I am quite interested in a miflex hose for my A700 and I can't see how the free parts...

Amazing video! My wife and I are heading to Bora Bora for our 10th anniversary in September. We are really looking forward to the incredible diving.

Great info! My wife and I are heading there for our 10 year anniversary in September. We are cruising on the Paul Gauguin with dives almost every day. We are also spending a couple extra days in Tahiti and Moorea at each end of the cruise. We are really looking forward to doing some tropical...
