Thanks for the massive message buddy. I'm sure someone will find the info and get use from it. I can't believe it was so long ago that I was looking for them. I'm a looooong way from the water now. All the best

Nice one. Will drop you a PM when I'm coming up. Cheers

No worries. Thanks for all your help. Stuey

Hmm.. that's a bit far! I have all my gear and only need tanks and weight and really just need them and a buddy. I'm an Instructor in the much colder waters of Vancouver but trade so have plenty of cold water experience if anyone out there is reluctant to pick up a buddy from the Board...

Ki guys, I'm back in the UK for a few months holiday away from Canada. Taking a trip up to East Kilbride, Ayrshire to see my Mum and was wondering if anyone had any advice as to going down in that area. Many thanks Stuey

I would say that anytime there's new divers around there's booty to be had but seeing as I know that the opener of this thread is not only an experienced diver but also an ok instructor, I'd have to correct it and say that any time there's divers around there's treasure to be found. When I...

First floats and then the boss' Rescue slates... it's surprising anyone lends you gear at all...

Excuse-me if I'm being stupid but why do you peel off the grip material??

Where can I pick these up second hand, Breals??

How much would you sell me one of them for?? :)

Thanks for the useful info Shaka.

Sweet, that's good to hear. I may be in the market for buying one of these puppies so I'm trying to get as much info as possible. Here's an interesting report on the SeaDoo VS Supercharged. Commissioned by Sea-doo it appears so bear that in mind whilst you read it.. That paper introduced the...

From what I can gather, having read the research paper done by DSAT, the VS Supercharged is still a toy. Poorly manufactured housing, unintuitive and fatiging controls, low speed, flimsy built. I recon it would do alright in the tropics but I'm in cold water here (I see you are too, fella)...

Hi guys, Just in case I am asking questions that have already been asked; a search of SB for 'DPV' returned *no* results. I'm looking at buying a DPV/UW scooter and am wondering if anyone here has any experience/advice with the current scooters that are on the market in the <$2000 range...

A dutch instructor friend of mine bought one of the masks that has the ear covers to keep the ears dry and we all teased him so much about looking like he was wearing headphones that he sealed up an old walkman and wore some in-the-ear headphones and listened to music for a couple of dives. Then...

The tyger Ray doesn't come very highly recomended from my research. Why are you interested in it?? Stuey

What a great post! Thanks a lot! I recon I may have to get in the pool and do some laps underwater (in scuba) and see what happens...

Sweet. Thanks Larry. Exactly what I was looking for. :)

I'm interested bc it's a useful piece of information. I know as well as the next man that moving fast underwater is counterproductive in a number of ways not least bc you scare of the fish. A couple of knots is more than I thought.. I'd figured less than a knot. Any more takers?

Moved this post over from the Equipment forum bc no one answered....does anyone have any ideas? I recall reading an article in a diving magazine - I think in Oz -a few years ago where they compared all the fins that were on the market at the time. They took a few people - layman, regular...
