    Keys/PB/Jupiter Trip Report

    I’m pretty sure the guy said he had a cert through IANTD but don’t know why they weren’t able to pull it online; I’m sure they would’ve if they could’ve. And this is where I part company with them; no reason they couldn’t have let that guy dive air. I don’t know if he is retired or took off a...

    Keys/PB/Jupiter Trip Report

    Nah, not buying it. I understand it’s their shop and their policy, already acknowledged that. But I don’t agree with the merit of it. They’ve taken an outlier position and one that is at times unfriendly to divers, like the guy they turned away the other day. And to be clear, the team there...

    Keys/PB/Jupiter Trip Report

    Just a few quick thoughts on some recent diving in the Keys and Jupiter. Islamorada Dive Center - we did a day with them, morning and afternoon. All shallow reef stuff. Viz wasn't great as Idalia had only recently been in the general area. Boat and crew were fine, store is nice. One...

    Jupiter Dive Thread

    Went to the MG111 yesterday, modest current and not great viz; a few Goliaths stacked up but not spectacular. 81 on the bottom

    Rapid Descent Rate

    How about your teammate? Are they doing the same or are you ditching them on descent and hoping to meet up on the bottom?

    SMB deployment question

    You can deploy it deeper or just practice from 15' - 20' a bit more and do it there; just takes a bit of focused practice.

    Hot Hot Hot Islamorada 7-15-23

    Nice stuff, I recall Hens and Chickens being very nice. Any experience with Alligator Lighthouse? Worth diving or better to just snorkel?

    Drysuit diving training

    Find someone who knows what they're doing to measure and guide you; it's worth up to several hours of drive time. I'm not familiar with shops up your way, maybe others can offer some suggestions.

    GUE Fundies -- Locally or Florida?

    High Springs is a nice little getaway and Blue Grotto is more pleasant than Dutch; you can always add the gloves and practice when you get home.

    TG-6 Accessories

    I'm picking up a TG-6 Tough and PT-059 housing from a new diver who hasn't used it much and is going in a different direction. He's including a Nauticam YS strobe adapter and spare battery/charger. Here's the dangerous question - what other accessories should I be looking at? Which ones made...

    Whale Shark diving

    From the posts above it sounds like Isla Mujeres is the best probability for them. I saw many on a trip to Galapagos as well as a lot of other great stuff, would love to go back on day. I also saw one in South Africa but that may have been more good luck than anything else. Good luck with...
