    Diving practices in GC

    Thanks for all the replies. It definitely adds insight and perspective! What prompted my question were experiences from previous dives in Roatan and Cozumel (and as I have stated, we have limited experience) where every DM we interacted with did everything that was required and mentioned here...

    Diving practices in GC

    Can someone please tell us if it is usual and customary procedure when diving in GC for the dive master to return to the boat when there are still some 4 to 8 divers down below, regardless of experience levels? We don't have a lot of dive or dive site experience but something just doesn't feel...

    First time packing for a trip with SCUBA gear. Help!!

    Has anyone ever had a problem with taking a diver's knife in checked-in luggage on a flight? We will be flying with United and I believe their policies allow this but not sure if we should expect any "surprises"??

    DECO vs DEEP stops

    Thank you all for the education and in particular the "box and balloon" scenario which was a simple but highly effective illustration of some of the hazards deep diving has to offer. I totally agree, as a rec diver I hope never to deal with such a situation and just wanted a better...

    DECO vs DEEP stops

    Can a seasoned veteran diver please help me understand what the difference is between a DECOMPRESSION stop and a DEEP stop? Why are they "presented" as different conditions/events in my dive computer documentation or is it all just a matter of terminology ...to confuse the "not so seasoned"...
