    Bonaire trip, 9/22-29.

    I believe the airport departure tax is $20US. Have it in hand because the airport ATM is very unreliable, as is the 'bank' there.

    DIR wars...Is it the name?

    I got separated when another diver kicked my reg so hard that the mouthpiece separated. But luckily, I grabbed my Atomics SS1 safe second that I had handily integrated into my jacket-style BC and made it safely to the surface. Another DIW lives to dive another day! Live and let live, my friends...

    Bonaire trip, 9/22-29.

    I have PBS!!! Post-Bonaire Syndrome. This includes depression and the uncontrollable desire to book another flight there as soon as possible. Just got back from a week there. We stayed at the BelMar, too. The best part was the night diving right off the pier there...big tarpon that are...

    Diving near Houston

    Thanks all! We have a fishing charter planned for one day and can maybe check out the upcoming conditions in the Gulf then. We have access to the family boat so a Gulf dive isn't out of the question. The scuba park sounds great though. We like fresh water and quarries. Any places near the park...

    Digital SLRs

    Hi! I am looking into getting a digital SLR set-up and would like opinions. I cannot decide between the Canon Rebel or the Nikon D70 (or maybe even the D100). Anyone have experience with these models? Are there decent housings available? Strobes? Accessories? This will be my first UW camera and...

    Diving near Houston

    Hi! My hubby and I are planning to visit family in Houston and were wondering if there were any good dive stops close by (2 hours or less). We have all our equipment except tanks (need a place to rent those) and are recently AOW certified. We were looking to go just for a day. Any info would be...

    Newbie dropping the big bucks: critique the gear choice

    As a fellow newbie gear addict (wanna see my collection of rock climbing, camping, hiking, horseback riding, fossil-collecting stuff? LOL) I can tell you that I've learned a lot here. I've also used common sense and an inate knowledge of myself to decide on my gear. It will do fine for most of...

    Some Roatan photos....

    Those are beautiful pictures!!!! Bless you for sharing. Are you a professional or a bust the curve hobbyist? Were they digital or film? I'd love to begin UW photography but I'm a little intimidated by all the choices and the lingo. I was contemplating taking a class. How did you get started?

    spearfishing accidents

    Hey, if this is true then I can cut my risk of having a dive accident by 90% by just not spearfishing. COOL!:jump013:

    The Tax Check Cometh

    thanks Pony, I hear that's a good computer. I will look into it further. The tech at my LDS has one and loves it.

    The Tax Check Cometh

    I stimulated the economy with the help of Scuba Toys - now I have a nice shiny new Atomics B2. Now I'm torn - have no idea what computer to get either. In same circumstance as Tarnis. I'd like it to be hoseless and AI, though.

    Dilemma, how to handle?

    :clapping: PERFECT! I'm not advocating taking over her personal responsibility but I wouldn't ignore this. If you didn't step in and steer her in the right direction, the next 'dive buddy' may not get the warning you did...with disasterous consequences for both. It would be a kind and...
