    Gary D."A few years back we stopped two idiots that were going to ride their kayaks through one of the smaller gates on the left side of the pic" :11: Man they had some balls.... Unfortunately, your efforts to spare their life's was probably futile... I'm sure they went on to die some...

    Entanglement??

    Very good point's all the way around... I've become complacent with my pre "dive planning" because the depth I dive (under 30') and the bottom time for a deco stop (205 min.).. I would have to come up for air before I would NEED to do a deco stop... Save some air for a safety stop, Come up S.I...

    Athens scuba park report.

    I'm not knocking them, I knew it was gonna be ruff... There was a tornado touched down in canton Friday, So Athens got whooped pretty good... But I still had to check it out, and I liked it... Athens is about 25 miles from here so I'll defiantly dive there again... The lake I live on is murky...

    Entanglement??

    Ok so I put myself in that situation but, That was in as closed environment with great viz and shallow water...It was 17' to the bottom of the boat...

    Yea 2216 psi/ 35 cubic feet.. Not worth it... But don't pass them up, they work perfect for underwater air deployments.. All you need is a piece of hose to screw into the existing valve, an air chuck for valve stems, And a couple of Truck tubes you know the big ones... And you got yourself a...

    Athens scuba park report.

    Viz was "ruff", about 10 feet or so.. Still way better than mud I usually swim in :11:... This was a first time trip for me.. I was promised I would like it more than CSSP, Which I did but only cause it's closer.. Cant beat the clarity of Clear springs, Athens was way SILTY... more than a...

    What do I need?

    I was sent to basic open water through the Fire Department to help "Introduce" More divers for our local volunteer PSD team.. The instructor was very informed in our line of work and pretty much made it clear that basic wasn't gonna cut it.. As with most Tech diving an advanced level cert or...

    Washdown/ Decon Procedures

    That's the best thing about riding in the big red truck 1,000 gallons of decon on tap. Seriously though, the fire dept. would be well equipped for this op'... Or you could go with the Haz-Mat style pressure sprayer with mild cleaning agent and fire hose to rinse it off.. You could even go as...
