Planning a trip there with wife and parents to Palm Island. My dad and I are the only divers and we are wonder how is it diving there? I normally dive cold Great Lakes and have also dived in Belize. To be honest I do prefer the wrecks of the Great lakes, though the best dive of my life was in...

We love Belize so much, we have been there 4 times, though my family is wanting to a new destination to get the "band back together". We liked how non-touristy and non-college-party-ish Belize was, though we are wanting to try some place new. We love good food, local crafts, hiking, biking...

I have dove over a dozen wrecks so far and I noticed how they seem like empty shells in some cases. I see portholes gone, anchors missing, and other key parts missing on a lot of wrecks. I also see a lot of different artifacts on display at various dive shops, such as the missing artifacts I...

At nags head, looking for a dive buddy for some shore dives to some wrecks and some spear fishing.

I picked up an old regulator, Sherwood Magnum Blizzard w/ a shadow octo, and a full console for $30 locally. I was thinking of using it as a backup or using it as a way to learn how to service a reg. Though i am seeing there is a hog regulator for sale for $180 w/ 1st, 2nd stages, and hose. With...

I have been wishy/washing about doing this the past 2 years. I thought I had finally brushed off taking the course, though after talking to a diver I respect a lot, it might have changed my mind. This buddy is a DM and has more regs (mostly double hose) in his basement than any dive shop I have...

I have been using a pair of split Scuba Pro jet fins, I recently picked up an old used pair of decor knock offs of the original black jet fin by scuba pro. A lot of the old salts I dive with swear by them and at $7 I couldn't say no. I normally do the flutter kick and sometimes the dolphin and...

I have 3 regulators now: 1) Aqualung Titan LX (primary) 2) US Divers (Pony) 3) Sherwood Blizzard Magnum (planned backup) At $30-$40/stage for labor I am thinking of servicing my own regulators. I have found out that I have been more displeased when leaving it to the "professionals", when it...

I currently have a Titan LX from aqualung and paid a bit of money for it when I first got into diving from LDS. I see the Hog D1 is priced a lot lower than most other regs, I am curious why it is cheaper than many other regulators. I have seen good reviews of it and I am question why people...

I have been diving since 2011 and there are three stores in my area. One store has me a little concerned about their approach to scuba diving. While they have the nicest looking store in town and their training is very good, they are very pushy and a little rude to some people, when it comes to...

Someone I know is selling a scubapro orange classic bcd. It has an regulator integrated into the power inflator and it looks in good condition. He is selling it for $65 and won't budge on price. He says if we have an issue, we can return it. It inflates and I can breath out of the regulator. I...

I am looking at a BCD locally that is orange, looks like it has regulator built into the power inflator, has a big pocket on the right side that says scubapro and has a dump valve on the back that can be actuated from pulling a ball string from the front. It looks like this one: ScubaPro Orange...

Looking at a craigslist regulator and I am wondering if they make parts for some of their old regulators: Scuba Dive - Regulator & Octopus with Guages I know brands like Aqualung/US Divers old and new regs can use the same parts.

I have charted a boat that can hold 6 people and there are only 4 of us. We are doing a 2 dive and/or possibly a 3 dive trip. The dives are on the following wrecks: 8/16 @ 12pm/noon Key Storm Americas A. E. Vickery It is $80/person for 2 dives and for the 3 dive (if we do it) it is $100 if we...

I am going down to Nags Head, NC with a lot of in laws, though I am the only diver. I think I got one, maybe two days of diving for the week we are down there. I see there are a couple of charters down there and I am still thinking which one to take. I have a strong interest in History and...

My Zoop decided that it wanted to stop working and I find this would be very annoying if I was on an expensive dive. I would like to buy a backup computer, my only requirements are that it has air integration and has a way to sync data with a computer. I am looking for something cheap and this...

A buddy of mine wants to buy a computer. I currently have a zoop and like it. He is looking at these, what do you guys think: Amazon.com : Mares Puck Wrist Dive Computer : Diving Equipment : Sports & Outdoors Amazon.com : Cressi Giotto Wrist Computer - Black/Blue : Digital Diving Gauges ...

I recently started helping a group of guys from club that looks for lost wrecks off lake Ontario. Right now we drop anchor do a sweep, then try some where else. They do log where they dive on a chart and use a GPS to make where they searched. They mentioned they tried to do a tow, though had...

I would like to take wreck diving specialty from a very good and experience wreck diver. I have already dove on a dozen different wrecks and I would prefer someone who has a vast experience of both tech and rec diving as I have the feeling that most DM's will tell me what I already know or I...

At first I thought DM was a bad idea, no money other than what you spend. Though my last dive outing I found out it was a lot of fun to help people and guide them while diving. This got me interested in diving for peanuts. I know shops will give you discounts, free air, and diving. Also, it...
