This my nuc dive.

Well, in my case, it was a convenience of transportation. Quick deployment, short jobs, different locations, my personal truck as a we tow vehicle, no need for heavy machinery. For times we need to load it on the barge, we fabricate lifting spreaders. For the offshore jobs, we always used Conex...

Hi, Here is a video of the dive trailer, I have built and used for my inshore projects. Tomek

I don't remember them being so restrictive. I think some of the deeper and more advance dives had a limitation of AOW. That being said, I took my son(OWD) on a few of their trips and after that, they never objected of him diving at more advance sites with his certification. That was safe...

In times, when every piece of crap, is advertised, as best thing, since the invention of the wheel, I belive that honest, unsolicited user opinion, is worth more then months of ad campaign. You order 'the best thing' and then you received useless, inferior quality piece and when you try to...

Nobody threatens QA members. On contrary the protesting instructors are told: "shut up or else"

My respect for Krzysztof Starnawski and other instructors standing by their principals. As of IANTD .....there is many good, talented people inside that organization - too bad that they will not see my money.

When the FW boat ramp will look like that beach in the video, I'll be more afraid, about jealous male seal, protecting his harem, than GW attack. But for now, it was just a single, cute seal pup. On the other hand, cute pup like that, bite the guy, when we were diving in Queen Charlotte Islands.

They are also resilient little fella's. I've seen plenty of them in Arthur Kill along unfamous "chemical coast", Kill van Kull and even East River near UN.

The little pup keep us company for a few days in Port Jefferson harbor. http://vid291.photobucket.com/albums/ll297/TomekR/ANIMALS/seal_zpsv1bwso9w.mp4

Sometime, in the 90s, I was sailing between Vancouver Island and Queen Charlotte Islands. The last stop before crossing the QC strait was a little village called Bella Bella. I was sitting in the bar, about to break last two beers in a six pack, when got approached by native American gentleman...

Well Paul, with all due respect, as a paying customer, I have also 1 rule. I am buying unit, I am deciding on an instructor (from ones certified by manufacturer naturally), I am paying for the instructions and I am choosing the destination which I like. If you have a problem with that, well...

bad week, another guy missing after diving Doria ...

Sorry perhaps it was my error - I think it is fixed now. rgrds Tomek

"Trapped Under the Sea" by Neil Swidey new book to be released on Feb 18. Not typical underwater story but close. In 1999, during construction of a sewer tunnel under Boston harbor five commercial divers attempt 9.6 mile long dry penetration with the use of two Humvees and a custom, or rather...

Well, last Sunday, my rebuild Salvus went for the first wet tryout in a pool. I started to dive in original Siebe Gorman goggles and nose plug but as soon as I step down the ladder the rubber strap give up on me -bad sign! I put my regular mask and jumped back. Ouch! In a pursue of original...

All that it is, legaly sanction, money making scam, with VIPs and hydros and no fill lists. :) BTW have just filled my 1917 tank for a Siebe Gorman Salvus with pure O2. have a nice dive

Thank You! rgrds Tomek

What about vis?

I took a chance on FW today. It was OK not much of an wave action, kinda of shelter from NWW wind. Made a slow loop(75 min) from west to east cove, around the little island. Vis only about 2-3 feet, temp surface 56-57F, bellow 45' 53F. Seen couple undersized bugs, two 4-5lbs blacks. That about...
