    Caribbean Explorer 2

    Hi all. My buddy owns the shop that is running this trip and I'm trying to gather a little more info/reports from people who have been on this itinerary before. I am undoubtedly going to get PM's asking for some more info and I haven't been on the trip, just helping out my buddy, who's a...

    Exporting SmartTrak data

    I've been doing some research on trying to export my smarttrak data so that I can put it in a different database format. I've gone here to try and understand the data and how to parse it. Unfortunately, I just can't quite figure it out. I opened my SLG file in MSAccess (gU6dokZ6sk9R...

    Bainbridge access B stuff

    hi all. A buddy and I were scootering in bainbridge the other day. We noticed that you can get to the "access B" side of the quarry if you really wanted to. Does anyone know what's over there? I've heard that there is a barn or the remnants of another railroad building or other structures...

    Gas fills in Ocean City, MD

    All, I have a private charter scheduled for this weekend (5/12), but I need to get gas (nitrox and possibly trimix) fills on Friday evening and Saturday evening. Anyone know of a place? Is Pirate Scuba the only place down there? I don't mind going to them at all, just checking. Thanks, Chris

    Ultrasonic Cleaner

    All, What are the differences between the $200 cleaners (like crest 175T) and the $40 on ebay for cleaning, say, your stuff on a regulator rebuild? I know the saying "you get what you pay for," but I'm interested in knowing why I should pay so much. I am completely dumb when it comes to...

    coworker on vacation--office fun

    My coworker was on vacation this week. We obviously had too much time on our hands. And while we were inspired by a picture of someone else's efforts to do the same thing, I still think we did a good job. Maybe not completely original, but a darn good job by some of us at the office... not...

    Rubber Knobs

    I purchased a DR 300 bar manifold at a great price, but I want to replace the plastic knobs with the rubber knobs with metal inserts (a DIR thing). But I just don't know where to purchase them. Is there any place online where I can order the rubber knobs? Thanks, Chris

    swimming through confined space

    All, I have a test this weekend to try and become a diver at the local aquarium. Part of the test is to swim through a 50-gal drum. Now, it appears that the easiest, and possibly only, way to do this is to take off the BC and push it ahead of you. I took this test last year, but it was sort...

    Lake Rawlings 9/17 weekend

    All, I plan on heading down to Lake Rawlings on the 16th and camping much like we did earlier in the year. Leaving for home Sunday morning(ish)--maybe after one last dive. I figured that since a lot of you were heading down to do the capefeardivers trip the following weekend that the interest...

    Drysuit not so dry

    Ack. I just purchased a drysuit from divetank.com and finally got the opportunity to take it to the pool for a test run and some weighting tests. The pool was very warm, and I had never had on a drysuit, so I didn't feel any tremendous trickles like the suit was leaking. But, when I took it...

    physics-why upside down breathing is hard

    All, I have an older zeagle reg (tech 50d) that a friend gave me when I started diving. In general, it works OK and I can't complain too much. I do have a couple of questions after diving with it for well over a year and about 25 dives: 1. How come when I roll onto my back or go head-down...

    Corolla--where to dive in Aug

    All, I'm not sure about the entire layout of the outer banks. I'll be doing a family vacation in August to Corolla and want to get out one or two days to do some diving. I will have all of my own gear (including tanks), and will need a nitrox fills and, I guess, a boat ride. I don't want...
